#TrumpTariffs
President Donald Trump has announced a 90-day suspension of tariffs on 75 trading partners that have not retaliated against his administration's tariff policies. However, there are still some important points to note about Trump's new tariff policy:
- *Tariffs on countries*: The U.S. will impose a 10% import tax on all countries, except China, which will face higher tariffs.
- *Extension of tariff suspension period*: The Trump administration is considering extending the 90-day suspension of tariffs for America's top trading partners, provided these countries demonstrate "good faith" in negotiations.
- *Trade agreement*: The U.S. has announced a framework agreement on trade with the UK and China, but full details have yet to be disclosed.
Some potential impacts of Trump's new tariff policy include ¹ ²:
- *Impact on the global economy*: Trump's new tariff policy could significantly affect the global economy, especially developing countries.
- *Impact on the stock market*: The stock market has fluctuated sharply following Trump's announcement of the tariff suspension.
- *Impact on inflation*: U.S. consumer prices rose less than expected in May, indicating that Trump's tariffs have not significantly impacted inflation.
