They could. Or Trump could fold tomorrow. No one knows. I don't even think Trump knows.
And everyone knows uncertainty is wonderful for the market and economy.
i think the article specifies that this is a new forecast based upon the Trump admin solidifying the final shape of the tariffs. So it seems unlikely at this phase that they will fold the current numbers, but we all know how smooth and predictable the Trump admin is.
There's no "solidifying" anything with this guy. His reign is based on his whims and emotions.
