Ep. 33: IEEPA Fallout, Tariff Uncertainty, Refunds, Section 122, and the 301 Plan B

In the latest episode of the Friday Exchange podcast and video, our trade insiders discuss the uncertainty surrounding tariff policy following the IEEPA ruling, the expiration of Section 122 tariffs this summer, and how Section 301 might take its place. They also examine the durability of current Framework and Agreements on Reciprocal Trade, the potential shift toward more tailored tariff solutions, whether a restoration of the previous tariff regime is possible in a post-IEEPA-tariff world, and what to expect when we're expecting a China summit.
