Trump Tariff Refunds Just Topped $100 Billion, and These Companies Are Receiving Some of the Largest Checks
Although some brand-name companies expect to receive up to $2.4 billion in IEEPA tariff refunds, it doesn't mean that tariffs are yesterday's news.
Overview
Although outsize returns in the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI), S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC), and Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) have been the norm under President Donald Trump, bouts of extreme volatility have been as well.
In early April 2025, the president unveiled his long-touted "Liberation Day" tariff and trade policy, featuring sweeping global tariffs and higher reciprocal tariffs on dozens of countries deemed to have adverse trade imbalances with America. These tariffs were designed to protect American manufacturing jobs and make U.S. goods more price-competitive with those imported from overseas markets.
