It depends on what the definition of “is” is.

I’m watching material pricing go up 10-15% from February with announcements anticipating another increase this year.


I can’t say that I’m surprised. Suppliers have to increase pricing. The only question is to what extent and to determine how much, if any, of the tariffs are they willing to absorb. I’ve found that suppliers are saying they’re absorbing some. If you don’t mind my asking what industry are you in?

Specialty construction.

So I’m not looking at 2x4s or the cost of galvanized fasteners.

There were dumbarses on here that cried about Jordans going up 20


Nike produces a shoe for $20 and sells it for $220. Nike asserts that they are raising the price to $240 due to tariffs, and people become frustrated with Trump in that situation
