Price: What another round on the tariff carousel means for US trade policy

Over the past week, the Trump administration has issued, paused, and implemented multiple new tariff actions – all the while previewing several additional tariff rounds.

The threat and reality of new tariffs and rising trade tensions with the United States’ largest trade partners – China, Canada, Mexico, and others – is newsworthy in its own right. However, the day-to-day bustle of these announcements should not obscure what they signal for other potential tariff measures in the near term and a revamped US trade and economic policy in the long term.
