Despite <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44756353/xi-jinping-says-there-are-no-winners-in-tariff-war-as-china-slaps-125-tariffs-on-us-goods-urges-trump-to-immediately-correct-wrongdoings">growing concerns about renewed trade</a> tensions between Washington and Beijing, one analyst says the drama may be more performative than policy-driven.
What Happened: Marko Papic, chief strategist at BCA Research, downplayed the long-term impact of escalating U.S.-China tariff rhetoric, suggesting that the latest threats may be largely symbolic and unlikely to result in sustained economic disruption.
"As the kids would say — just for the LOLz," Papic said in an interview with CNBC on Friday, referencing what he sees as political posturing from both sides.
His comments come after China's finance ministry accused the U.S. of "bullying" and warned that aggressive tariff policies could make America look like a "joke" on the global stage.
Papic acknowledged that markets are reacting to fears of a policy-induced slowdown, particularly in sectors like commodities, but said those concerns may be exaggerated. "It's not like this is a great financial crisis," he noted.
He's also not convinced that these trade policies— tariffs and bringing manufacturing back—will actually work or happen as planned. "When was the last time any U.S. policymaker actually referred to them [tariffs] as revenue raisers?"

Why It Matters: On Friday, Xi Jinping sharply raised tariffs on U.S. goods from 84% to a record 125%. This came after President Donald Trump hiked tariffs on Thursday, pushing the cost of Chinese imports to at least 145%. This jump results from a new 125% retaliatory tariff layered on top of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44757476/asia-mixed-europe-slides-as-china-tariff-hike-escalates-tensions-gold-soars-dollar-hits-two-year-low-global-markets-today-while-us-slept">existing 20% duties</a>.
While these measures respond to Trump's tariffs, China itself isn't shielded from the fallout. Goldman Sachs has lowered its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44740040/chinas-growth-outlook-dims-as-trumps-125-tariffs-put-millions-of-jobs-at-risk-goldman-warns">growth forecast for the country</a> and warned that up to 20 million export-related jobs could be at risk. The investment bank, however, attributed this outlook not only to U.S. tariffs but also to broader global economic uncertainty.

Trump And Xi Jinping's Tariff Threats May Be 'Just For The LOLz,' Says Analyst: 'It's Not Like This Is A Great Financial Crisis'

President Donald Trump raised tariffs on Thursday, increasing the price of Chinese imports to a minimum of 145%.

VietJet Air has secured a $300 million financial agreement with AV AirFinance, strengthening its fleet expansion plans while potentially providing Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) with additional business as the aircraft manufacturer works to <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/04/44580705/boeing-charting-a-quiet-comeback-aircraft-maker-bags-five-major-contracts-in-last-10-days-heres-what-its-chart-shows">recover from recent challenges</a>.
What Happened: The deal, signed in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday in the presence of Vietnam&#8217;s Deputy Prime Minister Ho Duc Phoc, comes as Boeing actively rebuilds its order pipeline following a difficult period marked by safety concerns, production halts, and delivery shortfalls.
On Friday, Reuters reported that the airline was also considering buying 20 wide-body Boeing 787 aircraft.
VietJet will begin taking delivery of its first Boeing 737 MAX aircraft this year from a landmark 200-plane order valued at over $24 billion, initially announced in February 2019. The Vietnamese carrier is currently in discussions to expand this historic order further, representing a potential bright spot for Boeing amid its recovery efforts.
&#8220;We are delighted to be a long-term strategic partner of Vietjet,&#8221; said Stephen Murphy, CEO of AV AirFinance. &#8220;This new commitment reflects our strong relationship and willingness to support Vietjet&#8217;s resurgent growth in the Asia-Pacific region via new generation aircraft.&#8221;
Boeing did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga</a>'s request for comment.

Why It Matters: Boeing has recently shown signs of momentum, securing five major contracts in late March from global customers including Malaysia Aviation Group, Japan Airlines, Korean Air, the U.S. Army, and BOC Aviation. These deals have bolstered Boeing&#8217;s order book.
For VietJet, the AV AirFinance agreement is part of broader aircraft financing arrangements totaling over $4 billion with U.S. financial institutions. 
The airline has established partnerships with major American corporations, including General Electric Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>), Raytheon Technologies Corp.&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RTX#NYSE">RTX</a>) Pratt &amp; Whitney division, and Honeywell International Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HON#NASDAQ">HON</a>), with total U.S. trade commitments reaching approximately $64 billion.
VietJet currently operates over 115 aircraft with more than 400 additional planes on order as it pursues global expansion.
