In this episode of Swiss View, we break down the latest developments in Trump’s global tariff policy, including the newly announced 10% worldwide tariff and the quick move to an increase to 15% under Section 122 authority.
What does Section 122 of U.S. trade law actually allow? How long can tariffs remain in place without Congressional approval? And what does this mean for global markets, inflation, and supply chains?
We discuss: The legal mechanics of Section 122 tariffs (150-day authority).
Why businesses face rising uncertainty over future U.S. trade policy.
The UK’s hope for zero steel tariffs was never realized.
Why Mexico — which sends 83% of its exports to the U.S. — narrowly avoided recession. Whether manufacturing and construction could rebound in 2026 ahead of the FIFA World Cup.
From U.S.–Mexico trade dependency to broader global manufacturing and supply chain risks, we examine how escalating tariffs could impact growth, investment, and financial markets. If you follow U.S. trade policy, global macroeconomics, emerging markets, or international investing, this episode provides the context for the world at large.
