The article discusses how President Trump's recent tariffs on Chinese imports are causing uncertainty and increased costs for U.S. businesses. Many companies are facing the challenge of raising prices to offset the additional costs imposed by the tariffs. Small business owners like Erica Campbell, who runs a Catholic goods business, express frustration over the unpredictability of future tariffs, creating a sense of paralysis in planning and decision-making.

Given the rising costs associated with tariffs and the potential for increased consumer prices, companies heavily reliant on imports from China may face decreased consumer demand.
