Trump's tariffs could squeeze US factories and boost costs by up to 4.5%, a new analysis finds
WASHINGTON (AP) — As President Donald Trump prepares to announce new tariff increases, the costs of his policies are starting to come into focus for a domestic manufacturing sector that depends on global supply chains, with a new analysis suggesting factory costs could increase by roughly 2% to 4.5%. 'There's going to be a cash squeeze for a lot of these firms,' said Chris Bangert-Drowns, the researcher at the Washington Center for Equitable Growth who conducted the analysis. Those seemingly small changes at factories with slim profit margins, Bangert-Drowns said, 'could lead to stagnation of wages, if not layoffs and closures of plants' if the costs are untenable. The analysis, released Tuesday, points to the challenges Trump might face in trying to sell his tariffs to the public as a broader political and economic win and not just as evidence his negotiating style gets other nations to back down. The success of Trump's policies ultimately depends on whether everyday Americans become wealthier and factory towns experience revivals, a goal outside economists say his Republican administration is unlikely to meet with tariffs. Trump has announced new frameworks with the European Union, Japan, the Philippines, Indonesia and Britain that would each raise the import taxes charged by the United States. He's prepared to levy tariffs against goods from dozens of other countries starting on Friday in the stated range of 15% to 50%. The U.S. stock market has shown relief the tariff rates aren't as high as Trump initially threatened in April and hope for a sense of stability going forward. Trump maintains the tariff revenues will whittle down the budget deficit and help whip up domestic factory jobs, all while playing down the risks of higher prices. 'We've wiped out inflation,' Trump said last Friday before boarding Marine One while on his way to Scotland. But there's the possibility of backlash in the form of higher prices and slower growth once tariffs flow more fully through the world economy. A June survey by the Atlanta Federal Reserve suggested companies would on average pass half of their tariff costs onto U.S. consumers through higher prices. Labor Department data shows America lost 14,000 manufacturing jobs after Trump rolled out his April tariffs, putting a lot of pressure as to whether a rebound starts in the June employment report coming out Friday. With new tariffs in place, there are new costs for factories The Washington Center for Equitable Growth analysis shows how Trump's devotion to tariffs carries potential economic and political costs for his agenda. In the swing states of Michigan and Wisconsin, more than 1 in 5 jobs are in the critical sectors of manufacturing, construction, mining and oil drilling and maintenance that have high exposures to his import taxes. The artificial intelligence sector Trump last week touted as the future of the economy is dependent on imports. More than 20% of the inputs for computer and electronics manufacturing are imported, so the tariffs could ultimately magnify a hefty multitrillion-dollar price tag for building out the technology in the U.S. The White House argues American businesses will access new markets because of the trade frameworks, saying companies will ultimately benefit as a result. 'The 'Made in USA' label is set to resume its global dominance under President Trump,' White House spokesman Kush Desai said. Still lots of uncertainty, but world economy faces a new toll There are limits to the analysis. Trump's tariff rates have been a moving target, and the analysis looks only at additional costs, not how those costs will be absorbed among foreign producers, domestic manufacturers and consumers. Also, the legal basis of the tariffs as an 'emergency' act goes before a U.S. appeals court on Thursday. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in an interview last week on Fox Business Network's 'Kudlow' show countries were essentially accepting the tariffs to maintain access to the U.S. market. 'Everyone is willing to pay a toll,' he said. But what Bessent didn't say is U.S. manufacturers are also paying much of that toll. 'We're getting squeezed from all sides,'' said Justin Johnson, president of Jordan Manufacturing Co. in Belding, Michigan, northeast of Grand Rapids. His grandfather founded the company in 1949. The company, which makes parts used by Amazon warehouses, auto companies and aerospace firms, has seen the price of a key raw material — steel coil — rise 5% to 10% this year. Trump has imposed 50% tariffs on imported steel and aluminum. Jordan Manufacturing doesn't buy foreign steel. But by crippling foreign competition, Trump's tariffs have allowed domestic U.S. steelmakers to hike prices. Johnson doesn't blame them. 'There's no red-blooded capitalist who isn't going to raise his prices'' under those circumstances, he said. Trump says no inflation from tariffs, but businesses see higher prices The Trump White House insists inflation is not surfacing in the economy, issuing a report through the Council of Economic Advisers this month saying the price of imported goods fell between December of last year and this past May. 'These findings contradict claims that tariffs or tariff-fears would lead to an acceleration of inflation,' the report concludes. Ernie Tedeschi, director of economics at the Budget Lab at Yale University, said that the more accurate measure would be to compare the trends in import prices with themselves in the past and that the CEA's own numbers show 'import prices have accelerated in recent months.' The latest estimate from the Budget Lab at Yale is the tariffs would cause the average household to have $2,400 less than it would otherwise have. Keeping the economy on a knife's edge Josh Smith, founder and president of Montana Knife Co., called himself a Trump voter but said he sees the tariffs on foreign steel and other goods as threatening his business. For instance, Smith just ordered a $515,000 machine from Germany that grinds his knife blades to a sharp edge. Trump had imposed a 10% tax on products from the EU that is set to rise to 15% under the trade framework he announced Sunday. So Trump's tax on the machine comes to $77,250 — about enough for Smith to hire an entry-level worker. Smith would happily buy the bevel-grinding machines from an American supplier. But there aren't any. 'There's only two companies in the world that make them, and they're both in Germany,'' Smith said. Then there's imported steel, which Trump is taxing at 50%. Until this year, Montana Knife bought the powdered steel it needs from Crucible Industries in Syracuse, New York. But Crucible declared bankruptcy last December, and its assets were purchased by a Swedish firm, Erasteel, which moved production to Sweden. Smith beat the tariffs by buying a year's worth of the steel in advance. But starting in 2026, the specialty steel he'll be importing from Sweden is set to be hit with a 50% duty. 'The average American is not sitting in the position I am, looking at the numbers I am and making the decisions each day, like, 'Hey, we cannot hire those extra few people because we might have to pay this tariff on this steel or this tariff on this grinder,'' he said. 'I want to buy more equipment and hire more people. That's what I want to do.'

Xali Gold Provides Update on South American and Mexican Projects
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Xali Gold Corp. (TSXV:XGC) ('Xali Gold' or the 'Company') is pleased to advise that, aside from the Sarape Project in Mexico, the Company has decided to shift its exploration focus to South America. 'Given the current price of gold, we have been searching for and evaluating advanced projects which could potentially be developed on a shorter timeline than our current exploration projects,' said Joanne Freeze, President and CEO of Xali Gold. 'While we have been reviewing many projects in Argentina, Peru, Chile and Mexico, our first preference is to secure an advanced-stage project in Peru with a significant gold resource and a Preliminary Economic Assessment ('PEA'). I have worked in Peru since the 1990's when Antamina, Yanacocha, Pierina and many other prolific mineral deposits were all discovered and developed so I have a solid base from which to recognize opportunity. We believe that our team's extensive experience and focus has excellent potential to unlock significant value.' Within Mexico, Xali Gold has most recently been advancing the Sarape silver-gold Project ('Sarape') under option from Advanced Lithium Corp. Sarape is located in the Rio Sonora Valley of northern Mexico, a prolific gold-silver mining district that includes First Majestic Silver's Santa Elena/Ermitano Mine, Premier Gold Mines' Mercedes Mine and Coeur Mining's Las Chispas Mine which was recently purchased by Coeur from Silvercrest for C$2.4 billion 1. Recent work by Xali Gold's exploration team at Sarape has identified significant evidence of the potential for higher grade gold and silver mineralization at depth and laterally from previous drilling. Compelling drill target generation work is underway for drilling planned for Q4 2025/Q1 2026. Xali Gold has recently discovered that nine mining concessions in El Oro have been declared as 'cancelled' by the Mexican Mines Bureau ('MMB'). These nine concessions account for approximately 35% of the land package at the El Oro Project. The remaining El Oro Concessions are still effective and in normal condition to conduct exploration and operations. In the Company's reasonable opinion, after review and consultation with its Mexican advisors, that in accordance with Mexican laws, the 'cancellation' is unlawful as the following requirements were not complied with: The cancellations may be revoked through a common procedure in Mexico, which involves submitting a demand with the Federal Administrative Court. The Company is reviewing the steps required to revoke the 'cancellations' with its Mexican advisors. If the Company chooses to commence legal or administrative process to revoke the 'cancellations', Xali Gold may request from the Federal Administrative Court the suspension of the effects of the notice of cancellation, which would allow it to continue carrying out exploration and operations during the time of litigation of such administrative trial, in case such measure is granted by the Federal Administrative Court. In the meantime, no other company may take ownership of the concessions. ________________________________ 1 References to nearby properties in the region is for information purposes only and there is no assurance that the Company will achieve the same results. About Xali Gold Xali Gold holds several gold and silver projects in both Mexico and Peru. Xali Gold has recently acquired the right to earn a 90% interest in the Sarape silver-gold Project ('Sarape'), in Northern Mexico from Advanced Lithium Corp. The Sarape Project is located in the Rio Sonora Valley of northern Mexico, a prolific gold-silver mining district that includes First Majestic Silver's Santa Elena/Ermitano Mine, Premier Gold Mines' Mercedes Mine and Coeur Mining's Las Chispas Mine. The Sarape Project is located approximately 20 km northeast of the Las Chispas Mine which was recently purchased by Coeur for C$2.4 billion. Xali Gold recognizes the Project's immense potential and plans to leverage our expertise in low-sulphidation epithermal gold systems such as El Oro, to unlock its full value. Las Chispas, Ermitano and Sarape have similar geological settings, occur within the same structural corridor and are all low-sulphidation epithermal vein projects. Las Chispas and Ermitaño are high-grade gold and silver mines, with low costs of production. The Company's El Oro project is a district scale historic producer of gold and silver. While the Company's main goal at El Oro is to make a new discovery, similar to the multi-million ounce ('oz') gold and silver ore bodies mined historically, the Company has entered into two agreements with third parties for the rights to produce gold and silver from specific shallow areas of the El Oro Project which are expected to bring in cash flow and open up underground access for drilling. Xali Gold is dedicated to being a responsible community partner. Joanne C. Freeze, President and CEO is the Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 for the projects discussed above.
