Steel, aluminum tariffs expected to impact Springfield consumers
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — The Trump administration doubled tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, with the new 50% rate set to begin Wednesday, June 4. When you hear about steel and aluminum, you might only be thinking about cars and construction. However, a professor in Springfield tells Ozarks First these tariffs are going to impact much more. 'It's storage, it's warehousing, it's everything,' said Kyle Goodin. Goodin is an instructor in the School of Accountancy at Missouri State University. He says most of the aluminum and steel that the United States imports comes from places like Mexico and Canada. 'When used appropriately, (tariffs) can save Americans money,' Goodin said. 'Right now, we're not really sure what it's going to do.' He says most people will notice the cost increase in places like big box retailers or grocery stores 'It's not just building sky rises or building vehicles or anything like that, not just the manufacturing side, but also the shipping and transportation side as well,' Goodin said. 'So that's why you're seeing some costs go up at places like Walmart, because they've got to ship these goods in.' Walmart announced last month it will be passing the costs of tariffs off on consumers. 'They do have inventories of stuff, but once the inventories are gone, then that's when the prices are going to start being passed on,' said Bruce Davis. Davis is retired and lives in Springfield. 'I probably have to cut back on my spending somewhat,' Davis said. 'Just depends on how big of a bite they take.' Davis says he's expecting to see more price increases at local stores in the future. 'I think people are mostly worried about just the thought of it, but I don't really think that the full impact is here yet,' Davis said. Goodin tells Ozarks First he doesn't think the Trump administration will back down from these steel and aluminum tariffs. 'I think these tariffs are going to probably stick around for a little longer, and they will cause some price increase, maybe not as drastically as everybody thinks, but there will be an increase in price on some stuff,' Goodin said. Even though those 50% tariffs on steel and aluminum begin on Wednesday, it will still take a while before they are seen in Springfield. Goodin says Springfield consumers can expect to see a hit in a few months. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

My Favorite Smartwatch Is Half Off at Walmart Right Now
My phone pings constantly from where it's plugged in across the room. But I've got my Galaxy Watch 4 on my wrist, so I can check to see who's pinging me, which app the notifications are from and whether it's important enough to merit my standing up and walking the dozen or so steps to unplug my phone and look, or just respond on my smartwatch (or swipe the notification away). Smartwatches are becoming an essential tech item, but most people don't need the latest and greatest version to get what they need. One of the best ways to buy a thoughtful tech gift without spending too much money? Choose a previous version of a current device, especially if the earlier model would work for you. So if you're searching for a cool gift for someone (or yourself), might I suggest my favorite smartwatch, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4? Thanks to a screaming deal at Walmart, the 40mm Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 is only $99 right now. Why I love the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Sure, it's not the latest model of the Samsung Watch. That would be the Galaxy Watch 7 or Galaxy Watch Ultra. But it still has all the main features, including ECG, blood pressure monitoring, sleep monitoring, Google integration for most things and Samsung Health. I'm not a fitness fanatic, so I don't need all the latest tracking features or even the improved battery life and bigger screen size of the Watch 7, which has a list price of $300, but is going for just $209 right now if you want the upgrade. The Galaxy Watch 4 has the fitness tracking I need without being overly complex. (Though it has advanced workout tracking for six modes including running, rowing and swimming, if you like those auto-detected tracking features.) For everyday use, I can check my notifications and respond, take hands-free calls, track sleep and skip between songs when listening in Spotify. Oh, and check the time. If you're looking for a wearable, it's the one I'd recommend checking out before looking into the latest version of the Galaxy Watch series. One caveat: Some people have complained lately that their battery is depleting quickly. Samsung has advice on how to run a diagnostic on your watch and fix the issue. Why the Galaxy Watch 4 makes a fun gift The Galaxy Watch 4 isn't going to be a gift you give to the tech enthusiast in your family or an Apple fan, but it's perfect for anyone who wants a smartwatch but doesn't want all the bells and whistles, or someone who doesn't know what they want in a smartwatch. For more, here are our other favorite smartwatches. If you're looking to gift someone a new phone, CNET has rounded up the best deals on the Samsung Galaxy S25. If this isn't right for the person you're shopping for right now, check out our editors' picks for the best gifts for grads and the best gifts for Father's Day for more ideas.

US Pushes Global Partners for Trade Deals by Wednesday
With an eye toward finalizing trade agreements ahead of its self-imposed July 9 deadline, the White House is pushing global trade partners to submit their most attractive offers to the U.S. by Wednesday. According to a draft of a U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) letter viewed by Reuters, the Trump administration is seeking to expedite the closure of deals with a number of countries. More from Sourcing Journal Trade Truce Crumbles as China Says US Violated Terms Trans-Pacific Ocean Freight Rates Continue Their Ascent on More Front-Loading How Should Brands Think About Cross-Border E-Commerce Amidst Uncertainty? Within the document, presumably to be sent to foreign trade officials, the administration asked for proposals related to the lowering of tariffs and non-tariff trade barriers along with quotas for the purchase of U.S. goods like agricultural and industrial products. It also asked for details about other commitments countries might make related to digital commerce and economic security. The outlet reported that the USTR wrote that it would evaluate responses with the intent of creating 'a possible landing zone' for negotiations which could include a new rate for reciprocal duties. In the weeks since President Donald Trump's April 2 'Liberation Day' announcements and the subsequent deferral of so-called 'reciprocal' duties, cabinet officials have touted progress in trade negotiations between the U.S. and dozens of trading partners. While talks have been in progress with Vietnam, India, Japan and the European Union, only one deal—which can be more accurately described as a framework for an agreement—has been finalized with the United Kingdom. The ambitious June 4 request for proposals underscores a sense of urgency within the administration. Just five weeks remain until Trump's reciprocal duties, which were deferred for a period of three months on April 9, will resume, blanketing imports from across the globe in double-digit duties. Since the White House's tariff schemes were unveiled, they've thrown markets into tumult and shaken up global sourcing and supply chains. According to a Monday report from the South China Morning Post, U.S. retailers and big box stores like Walmart have been pushing their suppliers in China to take on more of the tariff burden that's been foisted upon them—some demanding that their overseas partners pay up to 66 percent of the added duties. After Walmart's chief executive spoke out about the impact the tariffs might have on prices at retail during an earnings call last month, Trump directed the retailer to 'eat the tariffs' rather than pass along the cost to consumers. Trade talks with China have all but 'stalled,' according to administration officials. In recent days, both China and the U.S. have accused the other of undermining negotiations following the establishment of a three-month trade truce last month. While tensions between the two countries are running high, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Monday that Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping would likely speak sometime this week. And over the weekend, the USTR quietly released a Federal Register notice announcing extensions of certain existing tariff exclusions from Section 301 duties until Aug. 31. The notice said that a three-month extension would be granted on 164 exclusions that were extended in May of last year, along with 14 exclusions that were established in September. The products covered by the exclusions include mostly solar manufacturing equipment, technology and electronics, and some Covid-related goods. 'The US Trade Representative's decision to extend these exclusions takes into account public comments previously provided, previous advice of the advisory committees, and the interagency Section 301 Committee,' the notice said.
