💨 Abstract
President Trump announced a 100% tariff on imported computer chips, exempting U.S.-made chips. This move aims to protect domestic producers but could raise the cost of electronics, autos, and household appliances. The chip shortage during COVID-19 led to price increases, notably in the auto industry and overall inflation.
