US President Donald Trump widens scope of tariffs, but pushes back timeline
US President Donald Trump hit markets with fresh tariff headlines on Wednesday, re-reiterating his insistence on 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico, as well as adding the European Union to the mixed bad of countries that he will penalize US consumers for importing from.
Despite a fresh doubling down on his plans to fund the US' deficit spending with import taxes, President Trump has also kicked his own tariff can down the road for a fourth straight time, deciding that tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports won't go into effect until April.
