The December hikes were announced at the same time as the Oct Hikes. But they simply are delaying(cancelling)? the Oct hikes, but Dec hikes are still on tap.

Confused yet? Roffle

My understanding is that they're using the Dec. to now hold China to the first set of trade talks. Unless i'm confused.

No, October and December were announced at the same time. Was that the August tariff announcement? Gosh, losing track.

haha who knows. It's tough to remember what's what now. I'm really curious to see if China is going to backtrack on everything from Friday. The writing is certainly on the wall.
