President Trump rolled out a sweeping tariff package targeting heavy trucks (25%), pharmaceutical imports (100%), and furniture items (30% to 50%), citing national security. The diversifying tariff assault has rattled markets. Importers, pharma firms, and industrial players are being forced to reassess costs and supply chains across sectors now exposed to heavy duty risk.

President Trump announced a sweeping 100% tariff on imported foreign films, framing it as protection of U.S. cultural industries. At the same time, he reaffirmed new furniture import levies. While the full legal basis remains unclear, the dual tariff push signals rising protectionist pressure. Markets are watching carefully for retaliation and effects on media and consumer sectors.
