Many of President Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs took effect across the globe.
Goods from more than 60 countries and the European Union will face new import taxes. Products from the EU, Japan and South Korea will be taxed at 15% — imports from Taiwan, Vietnam and Bangladesh will face even higher rates at 20%. Trump also said he would issue a 100% tariff on computer chip imports Wednesday (no indication on when this will take effect), in a bold attempt to increase their domestic production.
The White House argues that these tariffs will lead to new investments and manufacturing jobs in America. But economic data shows potential warning signs since April when Trump first announced the plan. Many economists warn the full impact of these tariffs could take months or even years to fully understand.
