The US presidential election will vote on Tuesday (November 5th) local time (November 5). Many polls show that Democratic candidates Harris and Republican candidate Trump are evenly matched.The alternative pointer "Yiwu Index", which claims to be more accurate than polls, does not see the clue of the election. Analysis states that this is because of the current US presidential election. Both parties said that they only sold "Made in the United States" during the campaign and refused to refuse to sell "Made in the United States".The use of "Made in China" leads to fewer and fewer orders.
Due to the large demand for various campaign peripheral products in the US election year, Yiwu, Zhejiang, China, is famous for its small products, can often judge which candidate is more likely to get in the campaign through the "heat" of orders.victory.The Yiwu index accurately predicted Trump to win in 2016, but in 2020, it was predicted that Trump would be re -elected and accurately.
China ’s“ 22 Overseas Meridity ”was published on WeChat public account last Saturday (November 1), saying that in July this year, after Biden announced his withdrawal from the presidential campaign, Harris became the new candidate of the Democratic PartyHowever, her peripheral products are rare in the market.
In contrast, the products related to Trump in the Yiwu market are extremely rich, and the flags, hats, T -shirts and other types are complete, providing rich choices for their supporters.On Amazon and other platforms, Trump's surrounding products are more than twice that of Harris, showing his popularity in the Yiwu market and even global e -commerce platforms.
However, the article also pointed out that different from the eve of the previous two US elections, various Yiwu indexs flies. This time, the surrounding data is very "bleak"."" ".
Caixin.com reported that in August this year, Biden signed the "National Flag Act", asking the federal government to only purchase the flag produced in the United States.
In addition to the decrease in the US flag order, the orders for other campaign products are not as good as before.A baby shop owner of Yiwu Chamber of Commercial City vomited bitter water. "Is the situation in the election this year unknown? Trump hurts me in June, and the other party's sample deposit was paid.There is no result ... "
But 22 also pointed out that from the perspective of consumer behavior, global e -commerce platforms such as Amazon, eBay and Pinduoduo's TEMUs soldMore than 90 % of sellers are still in China, and a large number of products related to the US presidential election are selling hotly, which shows that refusal to use the "Made in China" policy in the short term to affect market supply and demand relationships.
For example, the campaign hat is priced at $ 40 on the Trump's official website, but the price on TEMU is only $ 3 to $ 4, and the price of Harris related products is not even sold on its official website.One -third of the price, tens of thousands of products related to Trump and Harris have been sold on the cross -border e -commerce platform TEMU.
