That means the largest, second largest and third largest regions of origin for US imports now all have ridiculously high tariff rates, on top of the sector and ressource specific ones like on copper

Consumer prices will skyrocket in the US unless these are reversed

EU did not get anything from appeasing Trump

- Drop Digital Tax - Ponied up war budgets to 5% of GDP (buying mainly US military equipment) - Promise to buy more US LNG

Still hit with across the board 30% tariffs, with promise for raise more if there is retaliation.

Another day, another tariff, announced or withdrawn.

What else did he get for Christmas?

It's been good news for Australian <-> Chinese trade, Canadian <-> EU trade.

It's a shame US (non elite) taxpayers will bear the brunt of US tariff costs, the only light here is that maybe some of this will hit wallets hard before the US midterms.

He may easily cancel it in two weeks. With Trump, it's almost unpredictable how things will go.
