Trump’s “Liberation Day” pricing Go after the conclusion of the negotiation day against the American financial markets, which have been shaken by uncertainty on the prices in recent weeks.
The S&P 500 is down approximately 3.9% over a year and the earnings of the reference index since the Trump elections in November were erased with regard to the expansion of the trade war.
“The prices will be much more generous than these countries for us, which means that they will be harder than these countries have been in the United States of America over the decades,” Trump said on Sunday. “They torn as if no country has ever been scammed in history, and we are going to be much nicer than they were for us.”

What are the prices?
Trump and the White House discussed several price options, although in the hours before the announcement, it remained clear what it will imply.
The president said that he wanted “reciprocal” prices on other countries, which would correspond to American import rates at the rate rates that foreign governments apply to American products – although he said later that prices would be “generous” by invoicing less in prices.
Aside from the reciprocal tariff plan, the Trump administration also discussed a cross rate up to 20%, as well as a plan to concentrate prices on 15 countries with high levels of trade with the United States and relatively high rate rates.
The secretary of the House White’s Table, Karoline Leavitt, said on Monday that there was no exemption at the prices, including for farmers, who were a central target for reprisals from foreign countries during Trump’s first mandate.
The White House also plans to launch its “External Revenue Service” to supervise the collection of prices by going to this responsibility of customs and the protection of American border to the new ERs within the Department of Commerce. The Trump administration maintains that companies and external countries pay prices, although economists are largely suitable that they are paid by the import company, which would be in this case American companies.

Trump imposed 25% prices on imports from Canada and Mexico with a sculpture for a rate of 10% rate of Canadian energy products, then delayed these prices to take effect on goods covered by the US-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) Until April 2, when his new prices will replace them.
Trump had previously announced 25% of prices on automotive imports, which took effect on April 3 and imposed prices of 25% on imported steel and aluminum. Other pricing plans specific to the influx sector include copper, semiconductors, pharmaceuticals and wood.
What is the next step?
The Trump administration’s tariff team has worked on the structuring of prices and negotiations with a number of other countries. The team includes President Trump, the Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, the secretary of trade Howard Lutnick, the representative of the United States Jamieson Greer and the director of the National Economic Council Kevin Hassett.
Leavitt said on Tuesday that “a lot of countries” contacted the Trump administration to discuss the means to reduce prices.

The Trump administration has suggested that prices – which are taxes on imported goods – could serve several objectives, such as the increase in federal tax revenues to compensate for other tax cuts, encouraging the relocation of manufacturing or as a negotiation tool to reduce the tariffs between American business partners.
These objectives are contradictory in certain respects: the prices which are imposed and which were then removed by negotiations resulting in a drop in trade barriers generate less tax revenue and abolish the incentive to relocate. Likewise, if companies move operations in the United States to avoid prices, the government would receive less tax revenue.
