The US exempts some goods from "reciprocal tariffs" Analysts: "180-degree turn" in tariff policy

The US Customs and Border Protection announced on the evening of the 11th that the federal government has agreed to exempt smartphones, computers, chips and other electronic products from so-called "reciprocal tariffs". Documents released by Customs and Border Protection show that these products are excluded from the so-called "reciprocal tariffs" imposed by the government on trading partners. The documents show that the exempted products apply to electronic products entering the United States after April 5, and "reciprocal tariffs" that have been paid can be sought for refund. Bloomberg reported that the measure may ease the price increase pressure faced by American consumers to some extent, while benefiting electronics giants including Apple and Samsung Electronics. Financial analyst Hussein Kubeisi pointed out that this marks a "U-turn" in the US government's tariff policy. (Jin Ten)
