How 10% tariffs will impact Syracuse import store

Yahoo09-04-2025

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (WSYR-TV) — A 10% baseline tariff will still apply to countries across the board, after President Trump announced a 90-day pause on the higher tariffs for most countries on Wednesday. Import stores are still worried about the impact tariffs will have on their business, including Thanos Import Market on Syracuse's North Side.
The locally family-owned market sells a variety of European-Mediterranean items.
'Anything from olive oil, cheeses, to cold cuts and different grocery products of different pastas, sauces, things like that,' said Joe Carni, owner of Thanos Import Market.

With nearly half of the store's items imported from European Countries.
'There are a lot of people, that in their lifetime may never get to go to Italy, Greece, France, Spain for vacation and taste the culture. We try and bring that here at an affordable price,' said Carni.
However, Carni says it can be costly. He's already having to pay fees for imported goods. But soon, he'll have to pay more, with President Trump's 10% tariffs expected to send prices soaring.
'The concern is the cost to our customers, kind of trying to make sure that we're able to stay in business and give customers a product at a fair cost,' said Carni.
One area shoppers will notice higher prices is on the olive oil shelf. Carni says between droughts and the tariffs, prices have increased about 20 to 30 percent.
'What it costs us, I try not to pass all of that onto the customer,' said Carni.
But, everything could change in an instant.
For now, Carni is waiting to see how the tariffs impact prices.
'It's you know the business, you're working with your margins. But you want to make sure that you're not losing customers, because you price yourself out of someone being able to come in and shop,' said Carni.

Disney to Pay Comcast $438.7M for Full Hulu Ownership, Ending Valuation Dispute

The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) is one of the best Dow stocks to invest in. The company has agreed to pay Comcast $438.7 million to buy out its remaining stake in the streaming service Hulu, ending a lengthy appraisal process. In 2023, The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) announced its plan to acquire Comcast's 33% share of Hulu, paying $8.6 billion based on a minimum value of $27.5 billion that the companies had agreed on in 2019. This move wasn't unexpected, as reports had indicated Disney's intention to gain full control of Hulu. The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) had originally acquired a two-thirds stake in Hulu through its purchase of Fox Corp.'s entertainment assets. After the initial payment, Disney and Comcast entered an appraisal process initially set to finish in 2024. The deal is expected to be finalized by July 24. Disney CEO Bob Iger made the following statement: 'We are pleased this is finally resolved. We have had a productive partnership with NBCUniversal, and we wish them the best of luck.' Meanwhile, The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) has started merging Hulu with its other streaming services, which are also bundled with ESPN+, its sports streaming platform.

Mayor Bass, regional mayors call for end to ICE raids in Southern California: "Our communities are not battlegrounds"

After days of violent and destructive protests in Los Angeles, fueled by an increase in immigration enforcement operations, Mayor Karen Bass and other regional mayors called for an end to Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids. At a news conference Wednesday morning, Bass said the unrest in a portion of Los Angeles started last Friday after immigration operations were carried out in several parts of Southern California. Bass told reporters that LA and surrounding cities were "peaceful" before the raids. Mayor Karen Bass called on the Trump administration to end the immigration enforcement operations taking place across the Southern California region. KCAL News She explained that the raids have caused fear in immigrant communities, and accused President Trump of worsening the situation when he ordered the deployment of National Guard and U.S. Marine troops. She called for an end to ICE raids and the federalization of troops. "When you start deploying federalized troops on the heels of these raids, it is a drastic and chaotic escalation and completely unnecessary," Bass said. Mr. Trump posted on his Truth Social platform, claiming that his decision to deploy troops to LA saved the city from burning to the ground. "The great people of Los Angeles are very lucky that I made the decision to go in and help!!!," he wrote. Her speech came a day after she implemented a curfew in a portion of downtown LA after five consecutive nights of demonstrations, which have escalated to clashes between protesters and law enforcement officers, as well as hundreds of arrests. Since the start of the protests, parts of downtown LA have been covered in graffiti, businesses have been looted and public property has been vandalized.

RINGO CHIU/AFP via Getty Images During an interview Wednesday morning on CBS Los Angeles, Bass explained that the curfew will be extended until it is necessary to ensure public safety. The curfew currently runs for one square mile in the downtown area from the 5 Freeway to the 110 Freeway and from the 10 Freeway to where the 110 Freeway and 5 Freeway merge from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. Bass has also taken to social media to share how the raids are affecting the city. In a post on X, she wrote, "Angelenos are trying to live their lives—going to work, caring for their families—while facing the constant threat of sudden immigration crackdowns." Other mayors from across Southern California joined Bass, calling for an end to the ICE raids. The Mayor of Huntington Park, Arturo Flores, a U.S. Marine Corps combat veteran, told reporters that the military neighborhoods. "The deployment of Marines on our U.S. soil is an alarming escalation that undermines the values of democracy," Flores said. "Our communities are not battle grounds." Flores said the ICE raids being carried out in his community and others across the region are a form of intimidation that traumatizes hardworking residents. He said fear-based tactics are being used to target immigrant communities. The Mayor of Paramount, Peggy Lemons, added that residents are choosing not to leave their homes or send their children to school out of fear that ICE will take them away. "For many in our city, this has been the most devastating time in recent memory," Lemons said. She said immigrants, who play such an important role in the makeup of the region, should not have to live in constant fear.
