Another day, another tariff development from Trump’s administration.
In his latest move in the global trade war, US President Donald Trump announced 25% of tariffs on “all cars not made in the US”, a car section shares. That would be additional any existing duty.
The announcement comes in front of Trump’s “Liberation Day” on April 2, which was originally thoughtful As a day, they would now slam the reciprocal tariffs, at the same time imposing duties in response to other dishonest trade policy, such as the use of tax added tax.
But Trump and his officials recently suggested that the “Liberation Day” tariffs could be softer than expected.
Although this could calm the insection of investors, this could in fact increase insecurity, because of the nature of these announcements “Again, again, again”, which makes no business leaders plan to have a future and undermine investors’ confidence in the stability of American politics.
To paraphrase Prussian General Carl von Clausewitz, Trump could say that everything in this store The war seems to be simpleBut even the simplest things are difficult.
