A trade war between the U.S. and China is quickly escalating as Beijing hit back with retaliatory tariffs against President Donald Trump’s steep duties. For investors on edge about the market turmoil, here are the stocks that could be hurt the most due to their China exposure. China’s finance ministry on Friday said it will impose a 34% tariff on all goods imported from the U.S. starting on April 10. Beijing criticized Washington’s decision to impose 34% of additional reciprocal levies on China — bringing total U.S. tariffs against the country to 54% — as “inconsistent with international trade rules.” The stock market is set for another bloodbath with the Dow futures shedding more than 1,000 points . Companies with large exposure to China led declines in premarket trading with Qualcomm and Nvidia down 5% and 4%, respectively. Goldman Sachs screened for stocks with revenue exposure of at least 25% to the Greater China region, as reported in 2023 fillings. By the firm’s definition, this region also includes Taiwan. Here are 10 that made the list: Nvidia is one of several chipmakers on the list, clocking 39% revenue exposure to the region. It comes during a pullback for shares, with the artificial intelligence darling’s stock down more than 17% in 2025 after two years of monster gains. Following that turmoil, Wall Street expects a rebound ahead for the megacap tech giant and retail investor favorite. The average analyst polled by LSEG has a buy rating and price target suggesting shares can rebound about 58%. Beyond chips and AI, casino stocks are also represented on the list with Las Vegas Sands and Wynn Resorts . This can be explained by the companies’ presences in Macao, a gambling destination that has earned the nickname the “Las Vegas of Asia.” Las Vegas Sands has 63% revenue exposure as of 2023. While shares have tumbled more than 24% year to date, most analysts have a buy rating and the average price target implies shares can rally nearly 50%, per LSEG. Wynn Resorts, meanwhile, recorded 47% revenue exposure to the Greater China region. Wynn has outperformed its peer, with shares sliding about 4% in 2025. The majority of analysts surveyed by LSEG also have a buy rating, with an average price target implying more than 37% upside.
