tariffs

A toy importer is delaying a new warehouse in Keene, while a steel fabricator in Greenfield worries other projects could dry up if Trump’s tariffs stifle economic growth.

U.S. stocks fell a day after posting spectacular gains over President Trump's decision to pause many of his tariffs. Now, some of that relief is fading.

The president announced he would raise tariffs on China to 125% "effective immediately" but said he was pausing big hikes on other U.S. trading partners to allow time for trade negotiations.

Dave Kemp, director for the New Hampshire Maple Producers Association and owner of D & D Maple Supplies in Jaffrey, New Hampshire, expects his annual “working vacation” to be consumed with questions over the impact of the Trump administration’s imposition of 25% tariffs on Canada will have on northern New England’s maple syrup industry.

Newly imposed 25% tariffs on imported steel and aluminum will ripple through the local economy, creating winners and losers.

Investors appear increasingly worried about the impact of tariffs on the U.S. economy.

For now, gasoline and heating fuel will likely see the most immediate changes. It still remains to be seen whether the tariffs apply to electricity.

The newly imposed import tariffs threaten a major economic link for New Hampshire and the rest of the region, with consumers bracing for higher prices.

New Hampshire Gov. Kelly Ayotte said Canada is a valuable trade partner. Ayotte says businesses worry about possible tariffs.

The auto industry has built a North American supply chain that ping-pongs parts between the U.S., Mexico and Canada. Tariffs of 25%, if actually imposed, would be costly for buyers and the industry.
