Trump Tariffs: Major Decision on Trump Tariffs in US Supreme Court Today! $17.55 Trillion at Stake.
Today is a crucial day in the United States. The Supreme Court could rule on Trump's mega-tariff policy – the very tariffs that Trump himself calls his favorite word. The court will decide whether the government has the authority to impose such heavy tariffs under the IEEPA (International Emergency Economic Powers Act), and if not, whether the government will have to refund importers. This is not just a legal battle, but a decision that will have a significant impact on America's trade policy, fiscal situation, and global markets.
What's at Stake?
There are two major questions in this case: Can the Trump administration impose tariffs under the IEEPA? If the court rules that this method was incorrect, will the government have to refund importers?
However, experts believe that the court's decision will not be an all-or-nothing outcome. That is, neither complete authority will be granted, nor will all power be taken away – a middle ground is likely. There is also a possibility that the court will grant the government limited authority under the IEEPA and also limit the refunds to be returned.
What is the White House thinking?
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has clearly stated that they are anticipating a mixed decision. According to him, "Our tariff collection will continue, there is no doubt about that. The real danger is that the president's power will be diminished – in both national security and negotiations." Trump primarily used the IEEPA to curb the import of fentanyl.
Bessent says that even if the court stops the tariffs, the administration has at least three other avenues under the 1962 Trade Act through which most tariffs can continue. However, if the government has to issue refunds, it could put pressure on efforts to reduce the fiscal deficit.
What are the market and economists saying? Interactive Brokers' senior economist, Jose Torres, believes that if the court removes the tariffs, the administration will find another way. Trump's agenda is very strong, and he wants to push it forward at all costs. Torres said that his clients also believe the administration has several backup options.
Prediction market Kalshi's opinion: Only a 28% chance that the court will rule in Trump's favor. CNBC also quoted analysts as saying that whether the court blocks or limits the tariffs, the White House will find a workaround.
Impact of Tariffs - Analysts Surprised
Many analysts expected that the tariffs would increase inflation and worsen the trade deficit. But the opposite happened—almost no impact on inflation, the trade deficit is at its lowest level since 2009, and the October trade gap reached a record low—which is completely contrary to analysts' forecasts.
