Uhh today auto tariffs were removed.



To give time to relocate ahah haha yes sure what in 4 years tariff get removed again? That's not a bipartisan widely agreeing decision it's one mans only decision which has no clue what that means.

One man in the know said surgical tariffs are OK but the broad brush ones not, too many complicated implications.

 
I was waiting for this as this was one of the low hanging fruit but can deal a big hit on China's cards. Chinese airliners make up 20% of Boeings order books and with Boeing reeling from the 737 and 777 fiasco, they really dont need this. With Boeing, comes its subsidiaries like Spirit Aerospace and worse the smaller parts suppliers who cater only to the specific industry and Boeing as a customer.

Here's the thing, any thing that the US imports from China, almost has no alternate or if it does costs way more. On the other hand, almost everything that China imports from the US, do have an alternative.

In January 2025, the top exports of United States to China were Aircraft parts (gliders, balloons, and powered aircraft) ($1.09B), Integrated Circuits ($1.09B), and Soybeans ($750M). In the same month, the main imports of United States from China were Telephones ($4.41B), Computers ($3.88B), and Electric Batteries ($1.91B).


Furthermore, the main imports to the US are fast moving consumer goods.... making it easier to find another market. As compared to the American imports to China, which are more specialized. Basically, it would crush American suppliers more than the Chinese suppliers. It's faster to fins buyers of cheap phones, versus a buyer for a Flight Management Guidance Computer.

Worse, China is an agile manufacturing nation that can copy, redesign and design their own replacements, so the longer this tariff war goes the more chances that China finds an alternative or produces one... which would compete down the line.

Yeah but you still don't get past VAT, at end of the invoice it is additional. Atleast with Trump it is a simple to account 10%, instead of mind boggling EU codes, each on has to have an approved number lol.
Sooner the better that Fred the Ai can do accounting for the EU.
 
Interesting. It suggests companies are eating the tariffs.

You believe numbers from an shirtless X account. ( I know fight club - how original)

I once made myself the trouble to check these informers value. Its cobbled together pieces of info to purvey their narrative.

This is their recent wishful thinking.

It has been explained a many times.
The consumer will bear the tariff costs.
In any event.

People not understanding this will soon at the cashier.

I was referring to this post. I can check later but you can use correct numbers but present them in a way to distort the result.

Yep, there will not be preferred goods status for American goods over domestic goods. So mean.
