China slashes steel, textile tariffs as Trump ratchets up pressure
China's finance ministry announced Sunday that it will reduce import tariffs on a variety of products, including textiles and steel.
The tariff rate for textiles and metals including steel will fall to 8.4 percent from 11.5 percent, effective Nov. 1, Reuters reports. “Reducing tariffs is conducive to promoting the balanced development of foreign trade and promoting a higher level of opening up to the outside world,” the finance ministry said.
The ministry also announced that tariffs on wood and paper, minerals, and gemstones will fall to 5.4 percent from 6.6 percent, with average tariffs across 1,500 products reaching 7.8 percent, down from 10.5 percent.
The reductions come as President Trump deploys increasingly aggressive tariffs against Chinese goods, and just six days after Trump implemented a 10 percent tariff on $200 billion of Chinese goods, following a similar action against $50 billion of goods in August.
The new tariff against Chinese imports was expected to rise from 10 percent to 25 percent at the end of the year.
In March, Trump began a global campaign to reform U.S. trade relations, introducing a 25 percent tariff on steel and 10 percent on aluminum, only briefly exempting Mexico, Canada, and the European Union.

California becomes first state requiring women to sit on corporate boards
California on Sunday became the first state to require publicly traded companies to have women on their boards of directors.
Gov. Jerry Brown (D) said in a statement to the California State Senate that he was signing the bill because "it's high time that corporate boards" include women.
“Given all the special privileges that corporations have enjoyed for so long, it’s high time that corporate boards include the people who constitute more than half the ‘persons’ in America," he said.
The bill requires publicly-held corporations in California to have at least one woman on their boards by the end of 2019. By the end of 2021, the bill requires corporations to have two women on their boards for boards with five directors and three women for boards with six or more directors.
Brown also wrote in the statement that “there have been numerous objections” to the bill and that “serious legal concerns” have been raised. But he added that “recent events in Washington, D.C.” and beyond made it clear that action was necessary.
“I don’t minimize the potential flaws that indeed may prove fatal to its ultimate implementation,” he said. “Nevertheless, recent events in Washington, D.C .—and beyond — make it crystal clear that many are not getting the message.”
Corporations that don't follow the bill's mandates could face fines from California's secretary of state.
