Moutai baijiu's fiery flavor and potential to appreciate in price is driving blistering demand. That in turn has pushed its market value to more than $145 billion, well past British whisky giant Diageo Plc.

(Bloomberg) -- China said it is ending its anti-dumping and anti-subsidy investigation into imports of U.S. sorghum.

The Asian country announced in April that imports would incur a 178.6 percent duty. China’s Ministry of Commerce said it is ending the probe as it is in the public’s interest to do so, according to a statement.
