Trump Tariffs: One-Year Impact
A year after Trump’s tariffs, U.S. companies are adjusting supply chains and absorbing costs amid changing policies (reciprocal tariffs struck down; global 10–15% tariffs; Section 232 on steel/aluminum).
Retail: Large chains managed; smaller firms struggled. Price increases passed to consumers in some cases. Examples: Walmart, Home Depot, Abercrombie & Fitch, American Eagle, Gap, Dollar Tree.
Automotive: Billions in tariffs absorbed; supply chains shifted and U.S. production increased. Examples: GM, Ford, Stellantis, Toyota, Nissan, Honda.
CPG: Costs rose for imported materials; mitigated via pricing, sourcing changes, or absorbed. Examples: Procter & Gamble, McCormick, Constellation Brands, J.M. Smucker.
Pharma: Price agreements and tariffs incentivized domestic manufacturing. Examples: Pfizer, Eli Lilly, Merck, Gilead, Bristol Myers, Novo Nordisk, GSK, Novartis, AbbVie, Johnson & Johnson.
