Peter Schiff discusses the steep decline in the stock market following President Trump's announcement of tariffs, with a focus on how these tariffs will negatively impact the U.S. economy. The host argues that, contrary to Trump's claims, the tariffs will not rejuvenate American industries and will instead lead to higher prices for consumers, fewer imports, and potential recession. The tariffs are considered illegal and unconstitutional by the host, who explains that tariffs, historically, have been a burden on the middle class and poor. The host also mentions China's retaliatory tariffs and the broader implications on global trade and economic stability. 🟨 Sign up for Peter's most valuable insights at https://schiffsovereign.com 🔔 Free Reports & Market Updates: https://www.europac.com 🟡 Schiff Gold News: https://www.schiffgold.com/news 📘 Book Store: https://schiffradio.com/books 👉 Follow Peter Schiff on Twitter: https://twitter.com/peterschiff 👉 Follow Peter Schiff on Instagram: https://instagram.com/peterschiff 👉 Follow Peter Schiff on TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@peterschiffofficial 👉 Follow Peter Schiff on Facebook: https://facebook.com/peterschiff Chapters: 00:00 Introduction: The High Stakes of Trading 00:57 Market Meltdown: The Impact of Tariffs 03:39 Stock Market Analysis: Winners and Losers 05:15 The Global Trade War: China's Retaliation 08:01 The Economics of Tariffs: Winners and Losers 08:52 The Shoe Industry: A Case Study 11:41 The Bigger Picture: US Consumption and Production 25:53 The Constitutional Debate on Tariffs 29:49 Trump's Tariff Strategy: A Closer Look 35:44 Global Trade Deficits and Tariffs 36:20 Scapegoating Immigrants and Trade Policies 37:07 Historical Context of Tariffs and Taxes 40:13 The Populist Movement and Income Tax 43:59 Impact of Tariffs on the Middle Class 47:16 Economic Consequences of Tariffs 52:13 Global Recession and Market Reactions 57:32 China's Role and Global Supply Chains 01:01:54 Investment Strategies and Economic Predictions 01:05:27 Conclusion and Final Thoughts #tariffs #trump #stocks Our Sponsors: * Check out FRE and use my code LISTEN20 for a great deal: https://frepouch.com * Check out Infinite Epigenetics: https://infiniteepigenetics.com/GOLD * Check out Justin Wine and use my code SCHIFF20 for a great deal: https://www.justinwine.com Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
