Why it matters: Such a deal would mark a thaw in the trade war that engulfed the two countries last year. - As laid out by the White House, it would also potentially lower prices on a variety of consumer goods where American shoppers have felt the pinch of inflation. How it works: The Trump administration said China would lower its tariffs on some agricultural goods and seafood, wood products, cosmetics, and medical devices. - The U.S. will cut tariffs on small appliances, toys, holiday decorations, and kids' car seats.…

What remains an area of uncertainty regarding the trade dispute according to the White House fact sheet?
