During a recent interview with CNBC, U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin predicted that the US would eventually sign a trade deal with China.
However, if there is no agreement between the two economic superpowers, the US will impose an additional batch of tariffs on China on Dec. 15 (as it previously intended to do).
“I have every expectation - if there’s not a deal, those tariffs would go in place - but I expect we’ll have a deal,” claims Mnuchin.

Yuri MolchanAs reported by U.Today, US President Donald Trump signaled some progress in the US-China trade talks, which instantly painted the US stock market green. Trump also stated they were near the end of the trade war after reaching a partial deal with China.
However, Goldman Sachs doesn't buy this optimism. The number one US bank predicts that there is a 60 percent chance that the previously announced 15 percent tariffs will be eventually imposed, but it will likely happen in 2020 instead of Dec. 15.
