Personally, I think the current Chinese government is quite pragmatic. It's more likely that they will attempt to reach a satisfactory concession than letting this "trade-war" drag on.

“If you buy a business just because it’s undervalued, then you have to worry about selling it when it reaches its intrinsic value. That’s hard. But if you can buy a few great companies, then you can sit on your ass. That’s a good thing.” - Charlie Munger
