🏛️ Latest U.S. Tariff Policy Trends

1. New Additional Tariffs on BRICS Countries

During July 6-7, President Trump announced that if countries allied with BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, etc.) have an 'anti-U.S. policy stance', an additional 10% tariff will be imposed.

U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick pointed out that these new regulations will officially take effect on August 1.

2. Basic Tariffs and Adjustment Details

Since the 'Liberation Day' executive order on April 2, the U.S. has imposed a 10% basic tariff on imports from most countries, with higher 'reciprocal tariffs' ranging from 10% to 50% levied on about 60 major trading partners, effective April 9.

During May, China's tariffs on U.S. goods decreased from 34% back to 10%, and the related measures are still in the negotiation transition period.

3. Separate Tariff Arrangements for the EU, Canada, and Mexico

The U.S. imposes a 10% basic tax on goods from the EU, which could rise to a maximum of **50%** if negotiations break down.

Since March 4, the U.S. has generally imposed a 25% tariff on goods from Canada and Mexico, with the energy portion at 10%; following urgent negotiations, these tariffs were extended to April.

4. Legal Challenges Continue

At the end of May, the U.S. trade court ruled that Trump's legal basis for imposing global tariffs (IEEPA) exceeded presidential authority, and the initial ruling was revoked; however, the appeals court subsequently allowed the tariffs to continue temporarily, with a comprehensive hearing scheduled for July 31.

📌 Summary and Outlook

From the initiation of the basic tariffs in April to the additional 10% on BRICS in July, the U.S. foreign trade policy continues to strengthen, driven by principles of 'reciprocity' and 'punishment'.

August 1 is a critical node for the current core tariff policies to take effect, with the U.S. deploying notification procedures and pressuring multiple countries through letters. If negotiations can reach an agreement before this deadline, higher tax rates can be avoided.

Despite questions regarding the legality of the trade court's decision, these tariffs remain in effect due to the appeals court's stay, potentially impacting global supply chains, consumer prices, and economic interactions between countries.
