The ongoing trade war between the U.S. and China, fueled by tariffs imposed by the Trump administration, has heightened concerns about potential product shortages and rising prices. Retailers are bracing for a wave of disruptions as shipments from China decline, leading to the possibility of empty store shelves. Economists warn that the full impact of these tariffs may not be felt immediately, with higher costs and reduced availability of goods expected to affect American consumers in the coming weeks. This situation could lead to significant economic challenges for both businesses and households.
