r/Tariffs

Here’s Reagan at his best.

TACO Tuesday

On Truth Social Trump wrote: “I have paused the 50% Tariffs against Canada, that were scheduled to kick in tomorrow morning for a three day period, based on the fact that Canada and the U.S.A., subject to the finalization of documents, have a DEAL!” On a Tuesday.

May be time for a higher leg on SPY and it collide with weekly options expiration for a maximum squeeze play!

Oil companies are flush with cash, this would drive the price of oil into the stratosphere at a time when oil reserves are low, Trump approval is terrible, Canadians would support Carney on this, oil lobby and farmers would revolt, Rs would be wrecked at the mid terms, the export tax would be used justifiably to support the industries hit directly by the tariffs. Where is this strategy breaking down?

The matter of Canada's "unfairness" to U.S. farmers keeps coming up. But, the dairy business is done differently in Canada, with market shares allocated by provincial dairy boards. There was a small slice allocated to U.S. dairy in the USMCA deal, but that slice has not even been used.

Now, dairy is logically the kind of thing that falls into "buy local" category. Even within Canada there is not much cross provincial dairy trade.

President Trump keeps stating about so many other products that the USA does not need to import from Canada. It is a similar thing for Canada when it comes to dairy. Canada produces all it needs internally.

President Trump is becoming annoying, like the vacuum cleaner salesman who keeps putting his foot in the door as you try to chase him away.

So, just what is the deal with him on this? The Canadian dairy market isn't all that big, and the USA doesn't really need the Canadian market either.

I think the total value of everything in there was around 170 or so (some warmie stuffed animals, temu stuffed animal, temu stickers, comic books and a heated blanket which was most expensive at 50 bucks. I ended up not shipping it cus I had exactly 1100 or so to my name, college student stuff (huge bummer tho cus was in love with this person and was tryna grab em lol), but im trying again and i want to know how exactly those tariffs worked? Im not sending the heated blanket anymore but i still have the stuffed animals (this was like.. in january). I saw that there are no taxes for things under 60, is that true? I really dont want to happily go to the office again only to find i cant afford to ship the gift.

I am told that companies will keep prices steady after tariffs end and instead retain greater profits.

Over the long term, however, do prices decline when new entrants accept smaller margins and trigger a broader reduction?

For CAPE Phase 3, we've been advised a lawsuit it likely required. I do not want to wait and our entries go beyond the refund period.

Has anyone used The Tariff Refund Project?
