  • Consequences of Import Tariffs

    From Joseph Pereira@1:124/5016 to All on Wed May 21 06:57:05 2025

    Japan sees its exports to the US shrinking due to the import tariffs. Importers are now preferring to wait and rely on existing stock.

    Chinese companies are looking for alternatives to the American market. They have little confidence that trade between the countries will truly recover.

    According to Trump, Walmart shouldn't be so greedy and should just absorb the extra costs from the import tariffs... But Mr. Trump, wasn't China supposed to pay those costs anyway?
