  The drop in port activity came as importers and retailers—especially those with business in China—grappled with Trump's tariffs announced in early April.

The article from Fortune, published on May 19, 2025, discusses a significant 30% drop in shipments at the Port of Los Angeles, attributing this decline to the ongoing trade tensions and tariffs imposed by the Trump administration on Chinese goods. The port, which is a critical gateway for U.S. imports, has seen a sharp decrease in container traffic, reflecting broader economic impacts from the trade war. Local businesses and logistics companies are feeling the strain, with many expressing concerns about the sustainability of their operations under the current trade policies. The article also notes that efforts to diversify supply chains away from China are underway, but the transition is proving challenging and costly for many firms.
