Marketwatch reports President Trump is moving ahead with tariffs at 25% on imported steel and 10% on aluminum to go into effect on March 23. Canada and Mexico will be excluded for now, as the U.S. discusses its national security relationships and the North American Free Trade Agreement with both countries and they could be modified for other countries, such as Australia, which the president has called a “long-term partner.” |
