Why are you guys talking about cheap pork? This is the opposite of that.
I just woke up but it seems obvious?
Yeah I thought the point is more expensive pork since we're importing them from China. What are these guys saying and why are they getting upvoted?
The title maybe makes it sound like china was buying pork from the US. Maybe since usually it’s a buyer that would cancel an order (as a seller would usually sell to anyone willing to pay the market price.)
This is exports to China. They are they buyers and they cancelled the orders.
Man, I had to read the linked sources to understand what was going on. How do you write all this and it doesn't even make sense.
