  • Tariffs have become President Donald Trump's favored economic move, and they're set to go into effect against Canada and Mexico tomorrow.

The article from MSN Money discusses the impact of tariffs on technology prices, particularly in light of recent trade tensions between the U.S. and China. Tariffs, which are taxes imposed on imported goods, have led to increased costs for tech products like smartphones, laptops, and other electronics. This escalation in prices is due to the U.S. imposing tariffs on Chinese goods, prompting retaliatory tariffs from China. The article explains that these tariffs are intended to protect domestic industries but result in higher costs for consumers. It also notes that companies might absorb some of these costs, but ultimately, price increases are passed on to consumers. Additionally, the article touches on how these tariffs could affect supply chains, potentially leading to delays and shortages, and discusses the broader economic implications, including potential impacts on inflation and consumer spending behavior.
