Storyline


U.S. consumers are grappling with rising prices as major retailers respond to new government-imposed tariffs with price hikes across essential goods.

On Thursday, U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order increasing tariff rates on 69 trading partners. The order imposes "additional ad valorem duties on goods of certain trading partners," with the new rates ranging from 10 percent to 40 percent.

In a bustling supermarket in Westbury, New York State on Friday, fully stocked shelves greeted shoppers. However, unease over tariff-related price surges cast a shadow, with some shoppers stockpiling essentials ahead of the policy implementation.

"I am worried, I actually purchased a car because I was worried about the tariffs coming up, honestly, because they were warning us, we purchased a new vehicle for that reason," said a customer.

Others lamented the steady climb in everyday expenses.

"Every time I come there's more money, more rising prices. It's terrible. I can't believe this. And it doesn't seem to have an end coming up at all," said another customer.

Amid mounting pressures, retail giants including Walmart, Best Buy, and Costco have announced or enacted price increases across various products. Procter and Gamble plans to hike prices on nearly 25 percent of its U.S. products to offset rising costs from the tariffs.
