Trade policies have always been a critical aspect of global economies and recent developments in U.S. tariff policy have sparked global market volatility and discussions around the impact on inflation. The latest tariff announcements have sent ripples through the markets, affecting various sectors, and raising questions about their long-term impact. But what exactly is the impact of the new tariff policies and how will they influence US businesses, global supply chains and the broader financial market?
