trump tariffs spark global trade tensions and threaten consumer prices
President Trump's new tariffs, including a 24% levy on Japan and a 25% on South Korea, could lead to significant price increases for consumers and risk igniting inflation and recession. The measures have sparked global market turmoil and prompted threats of retaliation from various countries, raising concerns over the future of international trade. Analysts warn that these tariffs may alienate allies and disrupt supply chains, while the administration claims they will bolster domestic manufacturing and create jobs.
