Trump Tariff Effect: Instagram User Shows Sharp Spike In Walmart Pricing

An Instagram user, Mercedes Chandler, recently shared a video from a Walmart store in the United States asserting how US President Donald Trump's tariffs are directly causing a sharp spike in prices across clothes and other items. The post captioned, "Donald Trump's tariffs are in full swing!" shows Chandler walking across clothing sections comparing old price tags with new ones. The older tags had been either removed or covered up and new higher prices added. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mercedes Chandler (@campcallout) "Guys, the tariffs are in active effect," Chandler says, adding, "Look at these clothes in Walmart. All the tags have these bottom pieces ripped off, but then you find one with the bottom still on - $10.98. The price is raised to $11.98." Showing a children's outfit originally priced at $6.98, hiked up to $10.98, and a backpack originally sold for $19.97 now priced at $24.97, Chandler points out "That's a $4 increase". "If you don't believe me, go to your local, whether it be Walmart or Target and check this out for yourself," they said in the video. Users on Instagram have reacted to the video in different ways. Some were confused, a few criticised the tariffs and others responded sarcastically. "Was it worth it? Are we great yet?", one user commented, taking a slight at Trump's MAGA philosophy. Another said, "Remember when Trump freaked out when Amazon put the tariff charges when you check out? Retail stores should put that in their receipt." A Target employee commented, "...We also are taking the perforated price tags off the clothing starting a few days ago". Another user, supporting the tariffs said, "Wow we get billions and billions from the tariffs and in return we have to pay an extra dollar for a shirt OH NOOOOO the world is coming to an end". Since Trump assumed office in January, he has threatened to impose the main cornerstone of his campaign - tariffs on other countries. He has repeatedly argued that tariffs boost American manufacturing and protect jobs. Now, companies that bring in foreign goods into the US have to pay tax to the government. In return, American buyers will have to pay more for the imports. On Wednesday, Trump escalated his tariff offensive against India by slapping an additional 25 percent duty and subsequently doubling it to 50 percent on Indian goods over New Delhi's continuous imports of Russian oil.

Tariffs impact limited, says SBI chairman

Hyderabad: Though the direct impact of tariffs imposed by US President Donald Trump on India's exports and the bank's asset quality is limited, certain sectors such as chemicals, textiles, gems, jewellery, and aquamarine exports from the two Telugu states could face challenges, SBI chairman CS Setty said on Saturday. "The narrative around tariffs and the uncertainty they bring is more concerning than the direct impact," Setty said on the sidelines of the rollout of SBI General Insurance's first lot of dedicated health insurance branches in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. Emphasising that the geographical and product diversity of India's exports provides a buffer against these tariffs, he said the Indian govt, along with banks, is exploring ways to support affected sectors, including potential relief measures for pending export bills.

"These two companies are serious candidates for listing," he said, indicating a strategic move to unlock value and enhance growth. "If you look at the investment SBI made in its 18 subsidiaries, it is about 6,500 crore, but today these subsidiaries are valued at around Rs 4 lakh crore. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Stylish New Mobility Scooters Available for Seniors (Prices May Surprise You) Mobility Scooter | Search Ads Search Now Undo This is the value we created for stakeholders," he said. Talking about the health insurance sector, he said with medical inflation rising to 14-16%, health insurers need to get into more tie-ups with local hospitals. On the move to set up the first-of-its-kind dedicated health insurance branches in tier-3 and -4 centres, he said SBI is first piloting this in the two Telugu states, with 15 branches each initially, before rolling it out nationally to cater to underserved populations and contribute to the Viksit Bharat vision of 'Insurance for All' by 2047. He said these branches will exclusively focus on health insurance and personal accident products, with an eye on enhancing health insurance awareness and accessibility in the two states where SBI General Insurance already has a network of 2,185 hospitals.
