This happened before when my previous employer didn't approve reorders for products in early February. We saw sales collapse around mid June and didn't know why into a month after that. The delays in shipments and orders is going to hit around Q3 to Q4.

Seems about right, yeah. I suspect it will start hitting smaller businesses sooner in June, and big box stores that were able to stock up beforehand in July. Walmart has been pretty open about the effects these tariffs will have on prices and supplies, and the timeline of when it will happen, I suspect to pressure lawmakers into action, but hats off to them for the candor.

This is what most Swing State voters and all 77 million voters wanted again.
