President-elect Donald Trump's proposed tariffs of up to 60% on imports from China and 10-20% on other countries may significantly raise prices for American consumers across multiple sectors, including electronics, apparel, and automotive parts. Experts warn that the burden of these tariffs will likely fall onto consumers, leading to increased costs in everyday goods, particularly affecting low-income households. Despite Trump's assurance that the tariffs will not inflate prices, economists predict that higher tariffs could lead to increased production costs and reduced American manufacturing growth. Retailers are already preparing to adjust prices in anticipation of the proposed tariffs, which may be implemented as early as mid-2025. The potential fallout from these tariffs extends beyond domestic markets, affecting international trade relations, especially with China and European nations.
