Tariffs are back in 2026?

Trade tensions between the United States and the European Union are resurfacing again.
Why? This time it seems to be Greenland and variois geopolitical and rare earth material demand reasons?
Washington’s renewed tariff threats reflect broader concerns over trade imbalances, strategic industries, and geopolitical leverage, rather than purely economic factors.
If implemented, tariffs would likely affect industrial goods, agriculture, and advanced manufacturing, raising costs for exporters and consumers on both sides.
Which means bad for EU stocks and maybe better for US producers and their stocks?
European firms could face reduced access to the U.S. market, while American companies dependent on European inputs may see higher production costs. The EU has signaled it is prepared to respond soon.
Looking ahead to 2026, prolonged tariff pressure could disrupt supply chains, dampen investment, and slow economic growth. More broadly, it may accelerate Europe’s push to diversify trade partnerships and reduce reliance on U.S. markets, reshaping global trade patterns.
