#TRUMP #TradeWars #CryptoNews #TrendingTopic
President Trump is rattling global markets again, this time targeting the heart of modern life: semiconductors & electronics.
📍What’s Happening?
Trump just launched a national security investigation under Section 232, eyeing America’s dependence on chips from Taiwan, China, Japan, S. Korea, and Malaysia.
💥 If threats are confirmed, 25%+ tariffs could hit:
🔹 Smartphones
🔹 Laptops
🔹 Medical devices
🔹 Telecom gear
🔹 Pharma components
💬 "We did it with steel — now it's electronics," said Commerce Secretary Lutnick.
📦 Temporary Tech Relief? Not So Fast.
A short-term exemption for phones & laptops was granted last Friday…
…but Trump made it clear: that’s just a pause.
🔊 On his platform, he hinted:
“A new chapter is coming.”
👀 Translation: Tariffs are on the way.
📉 Backlash Brewing:
Top voices warn of fallout:
⚠️ Price hikes for consumers
⚠️ Supply chain chaos
⚠️ Increased economic uncertainty
Even billionaire Bill Ackman, a Trump supporter, called for a cooler approach (10% cap, 90-day grace).
Ray Dalio? 🧠 "We risk recession if this goes wrong."
🌏 China Hits Back —HARD
China answered with a 125% tariff on U.S. goods, and a cryptic warning:
“Only the one who tied the bell can untie it.”
Meanwhile, Trump is bypassing Beijing, seeking deals with Japan, India, South Korea, and the EU.
But will that be enough?
📊 What’s at Stake?
This is more than a trade spat — it’s a fight for tech supremacy and economic survival.
Global supply chains, inflation, even crypto markets could feel the tremors.
Is this economic patriotism or policy roulette?
