(Kuala Lumpur News, 17th) The United States has imposed higher tariffs on Chinese gloves than expected, which has prompted a sharp increase in local glove stocks, with the most favored by the market. $HARTA (5168.MY)$ Hartalega (HARTA, 5168, main board healthcare stock) also hit the daily limit up!
In a research report, Xingye Investment Bank pointed out that the United States has decided to significantly increase tariffs on Chinese goods, with the tariff rate for gloves set to be raised to 50% from 2025 and further increased to 100% in 2026.
Analysts believe that the punitive measures taken by the United States against China will have a significant spillover effect for Malaysian glove manufacturers, and the average selling price of Chinese gloves may surpass Malaysia as early as next year.
Previously, the proposed import tariff on Chinese gloves by the USA is set to be increased to 25% in 2026, which is significantly lower than the current adjustment level.
The analyst continued to say that this could likely lead to an average selling price of Chinese gloves, skyrocketing from the current $17 to $25.50 in 2025, and even rising to $34 in 2026.
"Therefore, this will bring price advantages to Malaysian glove manufacturers, as the industry's average selling price ranges only between 20 to 21 USD.""
Therefore, analysts do not rule out the possibility that Chinese operators may reconsider their plans to expand in overseas markets to avoid high tariffs.
"However, we believe that this expansion may cause Chinese operators to lose their cost competitiveness, as they cannot achieve cost savings overseas through coal production."
