#TrumpTariffs

🧐 Imagine that President Trump decides to impose extra taxes on the products that the United States sells to other countries that already charge taxes on American products. This is like suddenly having to pay more for your favorite video games or that clothing brand you like, just because the country where they are made also imposes a tax on things coming from the United States.

Now, what could happen to the global economy if this occurs? Well, for starters, the markets would get nervous. It’s like when there’s a strong rumor at school; everyone is uneasy and doesn’t know what will happen. Stock prices could suddenly rise and fall, and people who invest might be afraid of losing their money.

Moreover, if the United States starts imposing these taxes, it is very likely that other countries would say: "Oh, really? Well, we are going to impose taxes on your products too." And that’s how a kind of economic fight begins, where everyone ends up paying more for things. This could slow down the global economy because trade between countries would become more difficult and expensive.

And what happens with cryptocurrencies and other types of risky investments? Well, when there is a lot of uncertainty in the world, people tend to look for safer places to put their money, like gold or government bonds. Cryptocurrencies and stocks of smaller companies could be affected because they are considered "riskier" investments in times of crisis. However, some believe that cryptocurrencies could be a good option to protect against inflation and economic problems, so their value could even rise.

- imposing more taxes on international trade is like adding fuel to the fire of uncertainty. Some may initially think it’s good for their country, but in the long run, it could create problems for everyone, making the economy more unstable and prices rise.
