    If country A sells most of an export to country B and country B makes it harder for country A to sell to country B, country A may raise prices for countries C, D and E to make up for the losses caused by country B.

      Could country A try to decrease exports to country B and increase exports to country C, D, and E, perhaps by lowering the cost in C, D, and E?

      I don’t have any evidence for this, and this is just too long for me to read at this late hour. www.imf.org/-/media/Files/…/wp1909.ashx

        Yeah, I’d think they’re going to produce what they are going to produce and will adjust allocation and prices to accommodate the demand change in the tariff country.
