The US Treasury Secretary is on the agenda with a remarkable statement about China in terms of the global economy and financial markets. Treasury Secretary Scott Besent announced that the removal of Chinese companies from US stock exchanges is on the agenda.
US Treasury Secretary: “All Options on the Table”
Answering questions in an interview with Fox Business, Besent was asked whether Chinese companies would continue to be traded on US stock exchanges. The Minister, who answered, “All options are on the table,” emphasized that such steps depend on President Donald Trump’s decision.
US-China Tensions Are Moving to Financial Dimensions
This statement by the Treasury Secretary was interpreted as indicating that the US-China tensions, which are currently escalating in the areas of technology, defense and trade, could also be reflected in financial markets. Restricting Chinese companies’ access to US capital markets could signal a new era in relations between the two countries.

A possible “delisting” process could have major effects on both Chinese technology giants and American investors. Such a development could lead to short-term fluctuations in stock market indices and shake investor confidence.
In the coming days, the official steps and details from the Trump administration will be closely monitored by the markets.
