Tariffs? I'll Be Back... To Assess the Damage!
Listen to me you punks. The situation is grim. Trump's tariffs on China they hit harder than my fist through a windshield. US businesses they're saying 'Hasta la vista' to container exports. Canceled freight orders abandoned cargo... it's a mess. But don't worry I'll be back... to analyze the wreckage. No problemo.
Furniture Toys Apparel: Crushed!
Alan Murphy some organic CEO says furniture producers in China are seeing 'a complete halt in orders.' Toys apparel footwear... all terminated! They should have listened to me. 'Come with me if you want to live' meant diversifying your supply chains! But did they listen? Noooo!
Tech Gets a Pass. I Find That Acceptable.
Apple gets a reprieve. They must have Skynet level lobbying. Erica York says 145% tariff would stop most trade. She speaks the truth like my CPU. But electronics are high margin technical. Hard to move sourcing. Smart move Apple. Very smart.
No Choice But To Cancel Orders!
Stephen Lamar CEO of some apparel group says 'constant switchbacking' means unpredictable costs. They can't pay the bills! 'That is not a risk small business can sustain.' He speaks the truth! Small business it's like trying to outrun a T 1000 in a steel mill: futile. You need guns and lots of 'em!
Maersk Warns: Massive Restructuring!
Maersk some container liner warns of a 'massive restructuring.' 'It will take months to sort out the mess.' I predict chaos. Congestion. Freight rate spikes. It's like trying to navigate LA traffic after Judgment Day. You're gonna need a bigger car... and a lot of patience.
Abandoned Cargo: A New Kind of Judgment Day!
Abandoned ocean and air freight. Cargo unclaimed. Port officials not notified. This is chaos. But the cycle is very simple. Port sells them to liquidators online sellers and drug chains. I've seen that before not a fan. It's just another form of termination. But hey I'll be back with a clearer picture.

This trade war is a real pain, like being punched by the Terminator himself!

Why didn't anyone send a Terminator back to stop this trade war?
