Global Trade and Tariffs 國際貿易及關稅

Trump’s administration plans to impose tariffs of 10-20% on all imports, with even higher rates of up to 60% on goods from China, aiming to revive domestic manufacturing.
川普政府計畫對所有進口商品徵收10%至20%的關稅，對來自中國的商品徵收高達60%的關稅，以振興國內製造業。

• Impact on China: 對中國的影響

With its economy heavily reliant on manufacturing, China is likely to face the most severe consequences. Higher tariffs could slow growth, forcing China to consider further fiscal stimulus, monetary easing, and currency depreciation.
由於中國的經濟高度依賴製造業，可能面臨最嚴重的後果。更高的關稅可能減緩經濟增長，迫使中國進一步採取財政刺激、貨幣寬鬆及貨幣貶值政策。

• Impact on Europe: 對歐洲的影響

Although Europe’s manufacturing sector—autos, pharmaceuticals, and machinery—may be affected, the broader economy, dominated by services (over 80% of GDP), is expected to experience limited impact.
儘管歐洲的製造業（如汽車、製藥和機械）可能受到影響，但佔GDP超過80%的服務業主導的經濟體系預計影響有限。

• Supply Chains 供應鏈：

Tariff increases could disrupt global supply chains, causing higher costs for companies relying on international trade, especially in developing countries.

美國股市反應正面，標普500和道瓊工業指數創下歷史新高。然而，由於對政府債務的擔憂，債券市場收益率上升。

Consumer Costs: 消費者成本

Higher tariffs are expected to increase consumer prices initially, reducing purchasing power. Over time, slower demand and base effects could moderate inflation but leave prices at a permanently higher level.
更高的關稅預計會先增加消費品價格，削弱購買力。隨著需求放緩，通貨膨脹可能趨緩，但價格將維持在較高水平。

Government Debt: 政府債務

Trump’s tax cuts, combined with his reluctance to offset them through spending reductions, risk placing the US government on an unsustainable debt trajectory, with interest payments already surpassing spending on defense and Medicare.
