Recent pause on US and China tariffs

An ASU supply chain expert weighs in on how tariffs are impacting the supply chain and when American consumers can expect to see a lack of inventory.

In this story aired May 19, 2025, on Arizona Horizon:

Some [of the damage] has been done... we really haven't seen the effect of the tariffs yet. What I've been telling everybody is that I think it will be August before we really see the impact of the tariffs — it might be late July — but it's August because of how much stuff we brought in early and then moving through those inventories.
