Leibowitz: Trump's tariffs confront a weakening market

The Supreme Court scheduled oral argument on cases challenging President Trump’s “reciprocal” tariffs—the argument date is Nov. 5. A decision could come shortly after that.

The Court could strike down the tariffs, as two lower courts have done. It could sustain the legality of the tariffs. Or it could send the issue back for further work. The country, and indeed the world, wait with bated breath.
