Just after midnight, the White House decided to host an international tariff party where goods from over 60 countries plus the European Union got slapped with 'tariff rates of 10% or higher.' Because nothing says diplomacy like hitting your global friends with a financial stick at bedtime. As the statement said, it's happening 'starting just after midnight,' proving once again that trade wars don’t do bedtime stories—they do sleepless nights for importers everywhere.
