Jill On Money: Tariff Turmoil and Tacos
- The Court of International Trade recently ruled that most of President Trump's tariffs, which were imposed under emergency economic authority granted by a 1977 federal law, are unlawful.
- This ruling followed a three-judge panel's April 2 decision that the president lacked authority for those tariffs, rendering related executive orders unlawful.
- The decision affects the baseline 10% tariff, reciprocal tariffs including a paused 145% levy on Chinese imports, and 20% fentanyl-related tariffs but excludes steel, aluminum, and motor vehicle tariffs under different laws.
- The administration has appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals, which allows tariffs to remain during review, and may seek Supreme Court intervention if needed.
- Investors initially responded positively to the court decision amid a nearly 20% rebound in the stock market since April 8; however, consumers should prepare for increased costs and a decelerating economy in the short term, while the Federal Reserve is likely to adopt a cautious approach until the appeals process is resolved.
