So this is something that. Everyone is waiting to see what happens. The president had initially suspended De Minimis as an exemption that was available to importers in February. And there was a lot of confusion among retailers, logistics operators, etc. And at that time, the U.S.

Postal Service temporarily stopped accepting parcels from China and Hong Kong while they tried to figure out how to handle that volume. So since then – I mean the president a week later delayed that until a time when the Commerce Department had notified the White House that systems were set up to process the inspections and collect the tariffs. Now since then –

I agree. It feels like in my lifetime, there has been this push more and more over the years toward cheaper and cheaper goods, more and more things. And it does seem there's now this tension between that and the ways the changing trade policy could serve to stop that flow of goods.

you know, from my perspective, covering the supply chain and logistics industry, particularly in the US, companies have built up their supply chains specifically to enable this flow of goods. So I don't know where they think things will land. And that's kind of what they're all grappling with right now.

A lot of the companies I cover are grappling with the uncertainty and trying to figure out, well, what changes should we make? But also what changes should we wait to make until we know where... The buck ultimately falls. You know, where will tariffs be before we make these massive changes that take years often to make?
