Honest Query: If Trump imposes the 25% tariffs,

[Bernardo de La Paz]

11. Prices decrease in Depressions. You don't want that

In Depressions, cash is king and people buy much less and conserve cash. Thus the economy declines and prices decline to stimulate demand. Central banks reduce the cost of borrowing greatly.

Initially tariffs increase prices, but after a while the decreased demand causes prices to fall. However there are limits to profitability below which prices can't fall.

Restoring lower / zero tariff levels (after a tariff increase) would decrease prices somewhat but if they have already tumbled they might not decrease much.
