1. Latest data from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shows that since April 5, the U.S. has collected more than $500 million in tariffs under the new retaliatory tariff policy. Since January 20, 2025, cumulative tariff revenue in the U.S. has exceeded $2.1 billion.
2. Today, the market value of U.S. stocks has plummeted significantly, with over $1.5 trillion wiped out in a single day.
[Smart] Comment: The U.S. tariff revenue for 2024 was approximately $9.7 billion, while so far this year it has only reached $2.1 billion, a decrease compared to the same period last year. Trump once planned for tariff revenue to reach $600 billion in a year, with each quarter expected to bring in $150 billion. However, the reality is that only $2.1 billion has been collected so far, far from the target. To meet expectations, it would need to be multiplied by 7. On the other hand, Trump's trade policies and tariff policies have caused turbulence in the U.S. market, and the significant drop in stock market value may well be a negative consequence of these policies.
