That was fast.

So are we taking bets on when it'll be sold?

I'm betting the ban will either be undone, or an alternative will fill the void very quickly.

It won't be sold. It is a huge global company. It was Trump who originally called for the ban. Now he can look lime a hero to young people (with Biden being the bad guy). If he doesn't do it, the is a rebranded version, also from China that will step in and replace it.

It's the US portion that would be sold.
