Macroeconomic Thought Leadership on Tariff Wars 2.0 | Market Impacts Research Report 2025-2026 - Thriving through Economic Transformations and Policy Pivots - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Tariff Wars 2.0 - Thriving through Economic Transformations and Policy Pivots" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Global economic, trade, and investment trends in 2025 are being shaped by a complex interplay of policy pivots and shifting tariff dynamics under the second Trump administration in the United States. Although reciprocal tariffs introduced in early April have been paused for 90 days, key tariffs remain in effect, including 25% on imports from Mexico and Canada, 25% on automobiles, 50% on metals, and 10% on all other imports into the US.

This macroeconomic thought leadership piece breaks down the complexities of tariff policy decisions and outlines tariff policy scenarios (including global retaliatory actions). 2025 GDP growth forecasts for global, advanced, and emerging economies have also been reforecast in the context of the evolving trade war. In the baseline, GDP growth is expected to ease from 3.2% in 2024 to 2.9% in 2025. Recent de-escalations in trade tensions with China, along with progress in US trade negotiations, are expected to support a moderate growth rebound in the second half of 2025.

This piece also presents a comparative analysis of US tariff exposure and trade deficits across key economies, alongside an assessment of the risks and growth implications stemming from the Trump administration's policies through 2025 and 2026.

Policymakers, corporate strategists, and business leaders can also leverage the outlined strategic recommendations to make well-informed decisions on expansion and investment strategies.
