Researchers are monitoring the real-time impact of tariffs on consumer prices, finding that prices for both domestic and imported goods are generally rising despite trade policy adjustments, with domestic prices also increasing due to higher input costs and demand shifts. Retailers appear to be reacting quickly to tariff shocks, and price increases for Chinese goods are more significant and persistent than for Canadian and Mexican products.
