ICYMI: Trump's 'Liberation Day' Tariffs Are Almost Here
Published 11 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
President Donald Trump's "Liberation Day" of reciprocal tariffs is almost here.
On April 2, Trump is rolling out a plan that would charge a blanket dollar for dollar tax on goods coming into the U.S. Trump clarified Sunday that this policy would apply to all countries instead of a more focused list.
The uncertainty around and scope of these tariffs (and a potential trade war) has spooked Wall Street and raised fears of inflation.
We discuss America's financial future.
