Retailers Absorb Tariff Costs, Avoid Price Hikes

Read, Watch or Listen

Facing pressure from President Trump's tariffs, major US retailers are grappling with rising costs. Walmart warned of price increases, prompting Trump's criticism to "EAT THE TARIFFS." Target and Home Depot, however, announced plans to absorb tariff costs, at least initially, by negotiating with suppliers and adjusting product offerings, rather than directly raising prices for consumers. This strategy comes after other retailers, such as Mattel and Amazon, faced White House backlash for discussing tariff-related price hikes.
