This study investigates the J-curve effect at the US state level, revealing that only 11 US states support the asymmetric J-curve for wood products, whereas 10 US states support the asymmetric inverse J-curve (shown in Appendix 2 online). Furthermore, high tariffs imposed by the US improved trade balances for only three states, implying that the high-tariff policy did not enhance the US wood-based trade balance with Canada.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCanadaNARDLtrade policyUSwood product-based J-curveThe US State-Level Wood Product-Based Bilateral Trade Balances with Canada Under the Protectionist US Trade Policy, COVID-19, and Economic Policy UncertaintyArticle10.1080/08853908.2023.22268832-s2.0-851644550875685Q354437WOS:001131678600003Q3
