Do the 145% tariffs on China even matter anymore?
The only stuff that really matters for goods imported from China is electronics, and now electronics is exempt from tariffs, so Trump basically caved in and removed tariffs entirely. All the big tech companies like Apple and Nvidia are going to be back where they were like this, it's a …
