Investopedia: Is Telecom The Next Squabbling GRound For The U.S. And China?

It's unfortunate, but the reality of politics in America these days is that it's sometimes hard to tell the difference between political posturing for the benefit of the constituents who watch TV and legitimate issues of national importance. Take the recent report from the U.S. House Intelligence Committee that recommends U.S. companies and government agencies avoid doing business with Chinese firms Huawei and ZTE - is this a legitimate concern for U.S. security, or just an unnecessary pre-election kerfuffle?

Perhaps even more critical to investors, however, is the question of whether Congress intends to put any real force behind this recommendation, and whether there will be consequences for American hardware vendors such as Cisco (Nasdaq:CSCO) and Juniper (Nasdaq:JNPR).
