Cedric Chehab, chief economist at BMI, a subsidiary of Fitch Solutions, stated that market volatility may ultimately limit the extent of trade tariffs in the usa. He mentioned that if the dollar appreciates significantly, imported commodities in the usa would become cheaper, potentially leading to an expansion of the trade deficit instead of a reduction. He pointed out that a stronger dollar also means that the profits of american companies may weaken because the value of overseas profits will decrease when converted back into dollars. Chehab added that companies like nvidia, Meta, and apple derive a significant portion of their revenue from overseas. He said, "The surge in tariff uncertainty could also put pressure on the stock market, and a sharp increase in volatility may limit Trump's policies on tariffs."
