2 MINS AGO: China CANCELS All US Soybean Orders — 2.4 Million Tons & $1.1 Billion VANISHED In Hours

China just sent a jolt through global markets by abruptly halting all U.S. soybean shipments—diverting 2.4 million tons to Brazil in a matter of hours and effectively erasing $1.1 billion in American agricultural contracts. But this wasn’t just a trade adjustment; it was a calculated move. By targeting a key U.S. export at the height of shipping season, Beijing struck where it would be felt most—sending shockwaves from commodity markets to Capitol Hill to the heartland farms of the Midwest.

In this video, we break down the bigger picture behind the headlines. Using real-time trade data, USDA reports, and insights from Bloomberg and the Wall Street Journal, we explore how China’s action may mark the beginning of a broader economic pivot. What looks like a grain shipment reroute could actually signal a strategic decoupling in progress—one with implications for U.S. agriculture, global supply chains, and long-standing trade norms.

26. That's why soybean futures and options exist.

So soybeans can be risk managed after planting.

That said, having a lunatic as President still makes such risk management difficult.

33. Farmers can learn not to vote for psychos.

2. This was initiated a few months back.

Unless they cancelled the move after trump caved, then reinstated more recently.

21. very very misleading YT video...

WASHINGTON, DC, US — China has not placed an order for US corn and soybeans since Jan. 16, four days before the inauguration of US President Donald Trump, Nikkei Asia reported, citing data from the US Department of Agriculture (USDA).

3. I hope y'all like soy beans.

They're going to be in fricken everything.

I seem to remember someone experimenting with using them to make tires in the '30s or something.

Where's George Washington Carver when you need him?

[markodochartaigh]

11. Soy beans, and

many soybean products can be stored for years. The hedge funds who own those commodities won't feel the slightest compunction to sell them cheap just because Mr and Mrs America and their six kids seem to have gotten themselves into a situation where they have no food on the table.

[Hugin]

13. What complicates that is they always want their money now!

What you say is true, they have no problem leaving other people's money linger in the markets forever. Even though those people may need their money for things like food and healthcare.

12. Auto makers somehow incorporated soy into wire insulation.

Starting massive feasts on insulation by Mickey, Minnie and company. Neighbor paid a ton of money to have his car rewired.

They done missed shooting themselves in the foot and shot themselves in the head instead. Brilliant move.

"The common consensus was that rodent damage in cars has increased exponentially over the last 10 years.”

[Hugin]

15. That rings a bell...

Maybe that's what it was soy-based polymers.

Let Mickey eat cake!

[usonian]

22. This cake

Deathmobile.

Rats!
And squirrels.

Pacifists can live-trap them.

[pecosbob]

36. Sounds like something rodents might like to chew on.

I recall a lot of fires started because of rats chewing insulation off wires back in the old days.

[usonian]

37. Squirrels (?) had a habit of taking their last meal on wires at the U.C. Berkeley power substation.

I guess "electical safety" was a pass-fail course for them.

4. Looks like TOFU is on the menu boys

[Hugin]

5. We need to come up with an acronym for TOFU like TACO.

I've already got the first letter and the last two. But, "O" poses a problem.

[BadgerMom]

8. Often? Ordinarily?

[Hugin]

9. Oh, bravo!

[rubbersole]

29. Trump Often Fucks Underlings.

[Ilsa]

17. Trump Ordinarily (or Only) Fucks Up? nt

[Hugin]

20. Obviously?

To everyone, but the Republicans and the MSM.

[swong19104]

25. TOFU

Trump Owns Fuck Ups

[tazcat]

32. trump obviously fucked up...again

[spanone]

6. Shit has consequences

[Ms. Toad]

10. Alarmist headline about old news. n/t

[Tarzanrock]

14. Aren't you glad you voted for the Turd, you Iowa Hayseeds?

[Justice matters.]

16. And Canada just exported natural gas to Japan for the first time

I think it was announced yesterday.

[AverageOldGuy]

18. THIS WAS TWO MONTHS AGO

This did NOT happen "2 minutes ago."

This is TWO MONTHS OLD.

[Figarosmom]

19. They've been doing this all along.

They directed their farmers to plant soy beans and have found other countries to order from.
So I guess we'll be paying the farmers more subsidies. Pretty soon they are going to just give up and stop farming .

[MichMan]

23. What does diverting 2.4 million tons to Brazil in a matter of hours mean?

[JHB]

24. So are "soy boys" now super-patriots for supporting American farmers? Will MAGA become "soy boys"?

Whose side are you on, Red Menace? Your Dear Leader has made liberal tofu-eaters the only people actually buying the farmer's produce.

[Bread and Circuses]

27. Well Done, China. TACO now knows that you hold all the cards

[iemanja]

30. This will devastate farmers. nt

[Hassler]

31. THE ART OF THE DEAL!

[MrWowWow]

34. The Amazon will suffer. It gets burned out to make McDonalds burger steer grazing and soybean farming

And the U.S. farmers who use to grow soybeans are bailed out with U.S. taxpayer money. That's how 💩 got the farmbelt vote. China doesn't care that their money will go towards defoliating the Amazon. They're planet.trashers. To them, money talks and Eco bullshit walks.
