What to know about Trump's 'Liberation Day' tariff show
Briefly

Trump has reinstated and increased tariffs on several countries, particularly China, by implementing a 10% to 20% tariff. His approach extends to Canada and Mexico, with significant tariffs on steel and aluminum imports. These tariffs aim to protect the U.S. economy but complicate relationships with multiple nations and sectors, notably construction. Threats of additional tariffs are constant, impacting industries and signaling ongoing trade tensions. The ramifications are particularly felt in homebuilding due to rising material costs from these tariffs, with reciprocal tariffs on certain goods scheduled to increase in the following months.
