And the ones arriving are coming at a premium. And it’s not only because of the value of the tariffs. There are plenty of people complaining that American companies are being required to pay imports up front because no one wants to take the risk of rejected deliveries due to surprise tariffs. This often means that American companies will need to get loans to pay for their orders, and those costs will be passed to the customers.
