High-Trend calls Section 301 tariff suspension ‘direct policy boon’

High-Trend International “welcomes” the joint decision by the United States and China to suspend Section 301 trade measures related to maritime logistics and shipping sectors for one year, calling the move “widely regarded as a direct and material policy benefit to the company’s operations.” High-Trend stated: “The suspension removes a long-standing cost and policy overhang that had affected HTCO‘s maritime logistics and carbon-neutral initiatives. This development is expected to significantly reduce cross-border shipping costs, improve cash-flow stability, and strengthen investor confidence in HTCO’s growth strategy. Industry analysts view the move as a major tailwind for companies operating along the U.S.-China trade corridor, especially those positioned in shipping efficiency and energy transition – sectors where HTCO has established a strong strategic foothold.” Shixuan He, Chief Executive Officer of HTCO, added: “This decision is a direct policy boon for HTCO’s business. We expect it to meaningfully lower our operating costs, expand margins, and accelerate value creation for our shareholders in the near term.”
