A major shift is underway in U.S. fiscal dynamics — tariffs are surging.
🔹 $22.3B collected in May — highest monthly total ever
🔹 Up from $16.5B in April
🔹 $67.2B collected year-to-date
🔹 Customs & excise tax revenue more than doubled in two months
🔹 Tariffs now make up 4% of federal revenue, vs. 2% average in recent years
What This Signals:
🔸 The U.S. is increasingly relying on trade-based revenue
🔸 Potential inflationary pressure as import costs climb
🔸 Global trade flows may shift in response
🔸 Ripple effects possible across commodities, equities, and crypto
Tariff revenue is accelerating — and it could reshape the global macro landscape heading into H2 2025.
