As the trade war grinds on, market jitters and recession worries grow.  China promises 'countermeasures' in trade war and firms worry trade war could last a decade.  Both countries' economies have felt the impact.  Adjusting prices and looking to new markets are among the options for companies affected by trade tensions with the US.  Is a China-US cold war inevitable?
