Bunge Sells Another Argentine Soybean Meal Cargo to China

Bloomberg5 days ago
Crop trader Bunge Global SA has sold another cargo of Argentine soybean meal to China as the Asian nation seeks to diversify supplies of the key animal feed ingredient due to a trade war with the US, according to people familiar with the matter.
The sale comes after Bunge recently chartered the first shipment to China. The newly sold cargo is expected to be shipped in September, said the people, who asked not to be named because the deal is private.

Scrapping AI Export Controls Is Self-Defeating

Aaron Ginn's op-ed 'China's and America's Self-Defeating AI Strategy' (Aug. 6) mischaracterizes the purpose and effectiveness of export controls. The policy was never intended as a brick wall but as a strategic speed bump—one essential tool among many for maintaining America's lead in artificial intelligence while limiting China's military capabilities. The controls on Nvidia's H20 chips appear to have been working until CEO Jensen Huang's lobbying secured a reversal that handed Beijing exactly what it wanted. DeepSeek's founder admitted that the chip controls were his company's biggest constraint. As AI's compute demands soar, export controls allow America's hardware advantage to deliver compounding benefits. Reversing course cedes those gains to China.

Our Aluminium Is a Boon to American Workers

Mark Duffy writes that 'Canada's Aluminum Subsidies Hurt the U.S.' (Letters, July 28). But let's review the numbers. Each year, Canada exports 2.7 million tons of aluminium to the U.S., a process that consumes 40 million megawatt-hours of electricity, equivalent to the output of at least four Hoover Dams. With the U.S.'s deregulated energy market, producing the same volume domestically would be prohibitively expensive—especially today, as data centers compete for the same power supply. That only four of the original 23 U.S. aluminium smelters remain has little to do with Canada and everything to do with the effects of energy deregulation in the 1980s. Canada remains the U.S.'s most secure and reliable source of aluminium because our industry reinvests hundreds of millions annually into world-class operations powered by low-cost hydroelectricity, a strategic advantage that U.S. industrialists have recognized for decades.
