Shares of Amazon.com and PDD Holdings, the owner of popular Chinese shopping app Temu, fell on Wednesday after the U.S. Postal Service said it would stop accepting parcels from China and Hong Kong.
The move comes after the U.S. imposed an additional 10% tariff on Chinese goods, and importantly, ended a customs exception for small-value parcels under $800 to enter the U.S. without paying tax.
The Postal Service did not give an explanation for the move and did not quantify how long the “temporary” suspension would last.
