Companies will increase prices due to tariffs but not by the full tariff percentage, leading to smaller profit margins.
"I don't think that companies will necessarily raise their tar their the price of their goods or services at the same rate that they're being taxed at at that higher tariff. So for example, say it's like a 30% tariff. I don't think that companies are going to raise their products and services or goods by 30%. I think they will have to increase in order to keep a profit margin that they want. Their profit margin may get smaller because of the tariffs, but I don't know that it's going to be that high of an increase to American consumers. It will be higher, just not the equivalent."

I don't see that once companies start charging a higher price and they realize, oh, we can charge this price and these products or these services are still being consumed. I don't see when they get a if they were to get a lower tariff for them to say, oh, we'll reflect that in the prices and reduce it for the Americans, they'll just see a larger pro profit margin."
