#TrumpTariffs

In a surprising move, U.S. President Donald Trump announced a fixed tariff of 55% on Chinese imports, raising a wave of concern in global markets.

📉 Immediate Economic Consequences:

Global growth slowdown: The World Bank predicts that this action will lead to the weakest global economic growth since the 1960s, with global growth estimates for 2025 reduced to 2.3%.

Price increases: Prices of essential goods in the United States have risen, affecting consumers' purchasing power, even among Trump's supporters.

Challenges for small businesses: Many small businesses have had to postpone product development and lay off employees due to rising costs and fluctuations in trade policies.

🪙 Impact on cryptocurrencies:

Market volatility: Unstable trade policies have led to significant fluctuations in financial markets, affecting the stability of cryptocurrencies.

Impact on liquidity: Protectionist policies may reduce liquidity in traditional financial markets, which could affect investments in cryptocurrencies.

🔮 Are we facing an opportunity or a trap?

While some see these policies as an opportunity to support local industries, others point to the potential risks of trade escalation and its impact on the global economy.
