Why this matters

Tariffs, or taxes on imported goods, are a significant economic policy tool often used to protect domestic industries, but they can lead to increased costs for consumers, reduced international trade, and retaliatory measures from other countries. Understanding their impact is crucial for businesses, investors, and the global economy, as they can reshape supply chains and market dynamics.
