Regardless of expense, WTF happens to 'demand' once tariffs increase prices?
Depends on what goods we are talking about. If the wholesalers and logistics companies and importers are the ones paying tariffs, that increase will pass on to everything.
There will not be a decrease in demand for grocery items or household necessities of that nature, regardless of price. They’ll just get more expensive over time.

How fricking stupid are you? Is Trump’s dick in your mouth cutting off blood to your brain??

Remember when there was talk of a German squadron in New Mexico? People on our side of the aisle lost their minds.

Two things about Trump.
He's not perfect.
I trust him more than any other President in my lifetime.
B-I-N-G-O !!
He is far from perfect - as is all humanity.
He is the closest thing to a national hero we will most likely have the opportunity to witness in real time.
He deserves a place on Rushmore.
On the other hand - there is not one Democrat leader who is very far separated from pure evil.
HUGE difference

A hobo off the streets would have been miles ahead of that dumbshit incoherent evil whore. That was the biggest thumb in the eye of the American voter in world history.
And to think - we had the choice of a world class leader not seen in generations - OR - a worthless piece of trash from the whorehouses of California without an original thought in her mind.

E.g., If the cost of bananas rise dramatically, consumers will shift their elective purchases to other more affordable fruits. If a recipe calls for three bananas, the consumer will buy 3 instead of a bunch with six attached.
But again, tariffs are a one-off. Any elevated consumer costs are subsequently demand-reducing, not inflationary. The same is true of corporate taxes.

The administration is simply lying to each other and to the American people in an attempt to unleash the military against anyone who disagrees with Trump.
This one is "unleashing the military" on unfettered criminals in an attempt to reduce crime. Ironically, those claiming to represent crime-infested communities are rabidly opposed to the effort. It's almost like they want to keep crime going.

quote:Sure, tariffs aren’t like printing money. They’re a one-time cost bump that could, in theory, cool demand and settle out over time. That makes perfect sense in a simple model.
Of course there will.

But don't import costs go up on things like steel or chips, and if so, don’t those higher costs spread into cars, housing, and everything else that uses them? And when domestic producers see their competitors charging more, why wouldn't they raise prices too?
The higher price level sticks as long as the tariff does, right? If those costs start showing up in wage negotiations or long-term contracts, isn’t that how a short-term shock turns into steady inflation pressure?
And what about the demand side? If tariffs are supposed to boost domestic production, doesn’t that mean more hiring, spending, and investment at home? Wouldn’t that extra activity keep prices firm instead of cooling them off?

Nope.

Look, I'm not being coy here. This is a distinction with a difference. Details matter. There are far too many folks who opine higher FOMC rates and/or QT should be used to counter tariffs. Those Fed measures can be quite effective in countering actual inflationary pressures.
In the case of tariffs though, QT and elevated rates serve no positive purpose at all. They are economic measures which will not reduce tariffs, but they will hurt the economy and increase cost-of-carry on our short-term debt.
quote:Persistent inflation is continued upward spiraling price pressure. In the absence of a severe supply-demand mismatch, “inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon, in the sense that it is and can be produced only by a more rapid increase in the quantity of money than in output.” Insofar as control and correction, the latter falls dead center in the Fed's wheelhouse.
Then what turns a cost shock into inflation that sticks
quote:But we're not talking about lowering margins. In your scenario, you are maintaining margins, but with increased sales, so profits would escalate.
When the whole market moves up and people keep buying, who’s racing to lower their margins?
