Taxes vs Tariffs

Market participants are preparing for the tax and trade policies pursued by the second Trump administration. Regarding taxes, proposals include making expiring Tax Cuts and Jobs Act provisions permanent, ending green energy subsidies from the Inflation Reduction Act, and exempting certain income from taxation. Proposed tariffs range from retaliatory measures-in-kind to targeting Chinese market participation to a universal 20% import tariff. On the campaign trail, the President often presented these proposals as part of a shift of financial burdens from domestic taxpayers to foreign companies. In a panel discussion with tax and trade experts, we will seek to determine the feasibility of such an idea and the potential consequences of Republican proposals on taxes and tariffs.
