Trump’s tariff plan shocks investors: Business leaders react now

Folks, buckle up. Trump just gave a big speech, and it’s got everyone talking. Especially about tariffs.

Remember tariffs? Those taxes on stuff coming into the country? Trump’s a big fan. He thinks they’ll help American businesses. But some experts are worried. Really worried.

Here’s the gist:

• Trump says tariffs are no big deal. A “little disturbance,” he called it.
• He wants to ditch the Chips Act. That’s the program giving billions to chip makers.
• One expert says Trump’s serious about tariffs. Like, really serious.

Could this lead to a trade war? Maybe. One analyst thinks so. He said Trump sees tariffs as protecting America’s “soul. ” Whoa.

Investors: Happy or Just Pretending?

What do investors think? Mixed bag, it seems.

One guy thinks it’s good news. Lower taxes and write-offs for businesses? That could boost spending, he says. More money in people’s pockets? Always a good thing, right?

But another expert wasn’t impressed. Too predictable, he said. Like watching a movie you’ve already seen. No surprises.

The Bottom Line?

Trump’s tariff talk is a big deal. It could shake things up. Big time.

Will it help the economy? Hurt it? Nobody knows for sure. But one thing’s clear: get ready for some changes. And maybe a little drama along the way.
