Mary Lovely was interviewed on the Knowledge@Wharton radio show on SiriusXM about the long-term costs of the China-U.S. trade war. Lovely warns that an escalating trade war with China will mean U.S. households must brace for higher prices that won’t come down. "We’re going to see permanently higher prices because the system as a whole will be less efficient," she says. "President Trump’s actions are cementing firms’ view that this is going to go on for a long time."

Lovely was also interviewed on NPR's All Things Considered for the segment titled "Trump Administration Delays Some China Tariffs."
