Follow Up on the Tariff Hold – A Quick Decision to Reverse from Courts

This post will be more of an update to the last one, as the economic landscape shifts on a near daily basis with the current administration. The U.S. Federal Appeals court has reversed a lower court’s ruling that previously blocked the extension of tariffs implemented under former President Trump.

The Business Impact

The return of these tariffs could translate to increased costs for U.S. businesses sourcing from China. The tariffs will resume as they were before May 28th. Some countries have expressed that they may be a little slower in negotiating now that the courts have shown a willingness to get involved.
