I was thinking that the current tariffs were pretty extensive. Anyone know of a user friendly source for which items are covered? I believe this is probably the authoritative source:
https://hts.usitc.gov/reststop/file?release=currentRelease&filename=China%20Tariffs https://hts.usitc.gov/reststop/file?release=currentRelease&f...
...but that's not too easy to peruse. I'd like to see something like:
0106.41.00.00, Bees, 7.5% Tariff
2832.30.10.00, Sodium thiosulfate, 25%
3701.99.60.30, Graphic arts film, 25%
3904.50.00.00, Vinylidene chloride polymers; Fluoropolymers, 25%
4107.19.10.40, Lining leather, 25%
...seems like you can get it one-at-a-time from:

You know, usually these spats are like "I'm going to tariff some niche product from you, and then you will tariff some niche product from me, and the crowds on both sides will be satisfied by the non-sacrifice." But again, if you put tariffs up that directly apply to an iPhone or Android phone, or anything else people actually buy, they are going to actually notice. I would stock up on bigger ticket purchases before January 15th, because prices are about to go crazy.
- floxy 2y agoSeems like the tariffs currently generate about $80 billion a year in tax revenue: https://fredblog.stlouisfed.org/2024/09/customs-duties-what-do-they-amount-to/ https://fredblog.stlouisfed.org/2024/09/customs-duties-what-...
