#trumpnewtariffs 🚨 BREAKING: Trump Responds to SCOTUS with NEW Global Tariffs!
The trade landscape just got a massive reset. After the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the previous "Liberation Day" tariffs (ruling the use of emergency powers illegal), President Trump didn't back down.
Within hours, he invoked Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, signing a new executive order to impose a 10% global tariff—which he has already signaled plans to hike to 15%.
The Macro Impact: Why This Matters:
Inflation Alert: Economists warn these "taxes on imports" could drive up costs for households and businesses, potentially stalling the Fed’s rate-cut plans.
Trade Deficit Battle: The administration is targeting a $1.2 trillion goods trade deficit, focusing heavily on China, Mexico, and even allies like India.
Market Volatility: Traditional markets are on edge as supply chains brace for a 150-day "temporary" surcharge that could become the new normal.
The Crypto Connection: Is
$BTC the Ultimate Hedge?
Crypto markets are reacting in real-time to these macro shifts:
Volatility Spike: We’ve seen Bitcoin (
$BTC ) dip on tariff hike news only to recover quickly, currently holding steady around the $68,000 mark.
The "Risk-Off" vs. "Digital Gold" Debate: While some investors dump "risk-on" assets during trade wars, others view Bitcoin as a hedge against currency debasement and a widening U.S. fiscal deficit.
Liquidity is King: Tariffs can tighten global dollar liquidity. In 2025, we already saw a "liquidity event" where
$BTC dropped significantly after 100% tariff threats on China—proving that crypto is no longer "decoupled" from global policy.
How to Manage Your Risk:
Watch the DXY: A stronger dollar (due to tariffs) can sometimes put pressure on
$BTC .
Avoid High Leverage: Macro-driven news can cause "flash liquidations." Stay safe.
Eyes on the Deadline: The new 10%–15% tariffs are set for a 150-day window. Expect massive volatility as the expiration approaches.
