nnTrump’s tariffs specifically target Asia’s tech sector, including semiconductor manufacturing and e-commerce giants. The removal of the ‘de minimis’ rule exempting small parcels from duties hits retailers like Shein and Temu that rely on cross-border sales. Advanced semiconductor manufacturing from Taiwan now faces 20% tariffs, potentially increasing costs for products like iPhones. Major US companies like Apple and Nvidia face significant cost increases due to their Asian supply chains. While intended to protect American interests, these tariffs may harm both US consumers through higher prices and Asian economies that depend on tech exports.
