đď¸ Episode 29: Tariffs Are ShiftingâBut the Fallout Isnât Over
Manage episode 492065142 series 3673018
145%. Thatâs where tariffs on Chinese imports currently sit. Now? The U.S. might drop them below 60%âor maybe just to 80%.
Sounds like relief, right?
Not quite. For logistics professionals, itâs not a reprieveâitâs another round of planning limbo.
This episode unpacks whatâs really happening behind the headlines:
đŚ Why freight planning doesnât bounce back just because tariffs fall
đ§ How policy whiplash is reshaping supply chain trust
đ What happens when business strategy is built on reactive mode
Even as Chinese exports to the U.S. fall 21%, the damage is already in motionâdisrupted timelines, renegotiated contracts, and uncertainty baked into every lane.
Tariffs arenât just taxes. Theyâre signals.
And when those signals shift on a dime, freight doesnât flow. It hesitates.
