US Tariffs should drive prices down for other countries.

[HushiePuppies]

Because goods from exporter countries are not as competitive going into USA, the supply increase and therefore should drive prices down for countries with no tariffs on import. Tio boh? econs sexpert lip lai.

Why do you think supply will increase? In anticipation of the tariffs, producers are already cutting back on production at least until they can find alternative markets.

 

[buttbERry]

suppliers and retailers will use tariffs as an excuse to increase prices even thought it doesnt really affect them?

You need demand
for the import to come in
no demand they import here for what?

Us consumers are addicted dependance on cheap china junks. Even after tariff increase will still be cheaper than other countries or america.

See after gst increased and cancellation of gst waiver for air shipped foods below $400, did anyone stopped buying from oversea online sellers? Most just sliently no choice accepted the increase.

don't think so hard.
Oil prices drop alot things will become cheaper for us in SG. Including interest rates and mortgage loans and dinojuice.
You can thank the great DJT for money in your pocket down the road.
But, nobody will tell you the truth except for little old me.
Obviously, if you lose money in stocks/crypto/forex etc, dont blame me or trump. You take the risk, you make or you lose.

On tariffs, in Singapore at least, it doesn't appear like the average singaporean would be affected by them much.
Singapore-china trade is not affected. Singapore-vietnam trade is not affected. Singapore-malaysia trade is not affected. You can still buy your cheap stuff from taobao etc.

Can post a thread tracking the price of goods dropping?

Why would the price drop on imports from countries you mention?

Falling Oil price hasnt helped in the past , why would it change now?

You wait and see lor.
Oil is the major input into everything.
People will be able to save on their mortgages, their petrol, their electricity etc. That's already a huge savings every month for the average joe. So simple but don't understand?

Mark my words. When it actually happens, no one will show appreciation to DJT except me.
Quietly pocket the money but refuse to acknowledge.
Actually, now that i think about it, most would not even know it is thanks to DJT. Even more jiak lat.

But, I want to repeat, if you lose money in stocks/crypto/forex etc, don't blame me or Trump. You take the risk, you make or you lose.

When did the electricity prices drop?

Almost all goods are going up in price , as I said let me know when supermarket prices start dropping.
