"..When asked abt the impact of #tariffs, 60% of builders reported their suppliers have already increased/announced increases of material prices...increased prices by 6.3% in response to expected tariffs. This means builders estimate a typical cost effect from tariffs at $10,900 per home.." #tradewar #MAGAnomics https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/nahb-housing-market-index

the government of Hong Kong cited US President Donald Trump’s decision last week to eliminate the so-called “de minimis” exception for postal items sent from the city to the US.
“The US is unreasonable, bullying and imposing tariffs abusively,” the government said in the statement. “The public in Hong Kong should be prepared to pay exorbitant and unreasonable fees due to the US’s unreasonable and bullying acts.” #tradewar #tariffs #MAGAnomics https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/15/business/hong-kong-suspends-postal-service-to-us-intl-hnk?Date=20250416&Profile=cnnbrk&utm_content=1744769540&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter

winners & losers for this week in stocks;
i think South Africa b/ they had a 6% up week plus only 10% #tariffs. While the US & China are on the top of the gains list, they will both lose 3%GDP from the #TradeWar to come. Poor Singapore, market down 8% plus 10% tariffs for just sitting there #MAGAnomics https://tradingeconomics.com/stocks

great news nvidia...#1Problem, those chips now face a 84%-104% tariff on china's end and they have a chip that isnt quite as good but does the job, at far less a price. yall might need to seek other markets for those chips #Tariffs #MAGAnomics https://www.npr.org/2025/04/09/nx-s1-5356480/nvidia-china-ai-h20-chips-trump
by making its currency cheaper related to the dollar and euro, China has put everything on sale for everyone who doesnt have 124% #tariffs on them #MAGAnomics https://tradingeconomics.com/china/currency
went to #Rednote to see what theyre thinking of the trade war & #tariffs and i saw a version of this video 5x. it basically says that if you think the chinese businesses are gonna eat a 20% #tariff for doing nothing wrong, forget it. they feel like its getting to hard to do business w/ US, so why try
#MAGAnomics
I cannot stress how stupid an economic policy it is to demand that everything be made in your country while simultaneously kicking out all the immigrants we need to have an adequate labor force, not to mention kidnapping doctors and students so fewer people will even want to come here.
Tariffs & Taxes By Troglodytes
"Beijing is looking to expand fiscal spending this year. The government plans to allocate more than 8% of gross domestic product to stimulate demand, up from 6.6% in 2024, according to Bloomberg.."
No thx! america will be doing austerity instead

Vietnam has as much inflation as we do while having a trade surplus with the US, kinda throws the theory by the great economist, trump, out the window abt why china has low inflation #MAGAnomics
anticipation of drill, baby, drill drove oil prices up to $79 days before trump was sworm in, its now down almost 25% since #MAGAnomics #tariffs #tariff https://tradingeconomics.com/commodity/crude-oil

the above post is a study of tariff rates that show for every 3.6% increase, you cant expect .4% of GDP contraction that can last for up to 5yrs. tariffs are a real lag, that math (26%/3.6%x.4) works out to at least a 2.89% GDP contraction or recession. But it will also come with high inflation and unemployment as ppl are laid off and import prices for inputs rise #MAGAnomics
![GLOBAL ECONOMICS UPDATE
Trump reciprocal tariff blow bigger than we expected President Donald Trump's country-specific reciprocal tariffs turned out to be bigger than expected, with our calculations pointing to an import-weighted average tariff of 19.1%. If (as we believe) the reciprocal tariffs stack on top of the earlier tariff hikes on China and the product-specific tariffs on steel, aluminum and autos, that means the effective tariff rate on all imports will rise from 2.3% last year to around 26%, leaving it at a 131-year high. In very general terms, Canada and Mexico have got off lightly, while those in Asia, particularly China and Vietnam, have been hit hard. The European Union and Japan sit somewhere in the middle.

"Using data for 151 countries over 1963–2014, we find that tariff increases are associated with an economically and statistically sizeable and persistent decline in output growth... The impact is persistent and increases with the magnitude of the tariff change. Our baseline econometric model suggests that a one standard deviation increase in the tariff rate (corresponding to a 3.6% points) leads to about a 0.4% decline of output 5yrs later."
