How long does it typically take for prices to return to normal after tariffs are removed?

I can only expect Trump to continue disrupting the business environment with his willy-nilly bullshit proclamations and I need to protect my business against that worthless orange auto-fellating facefucker

I don't think I'm the only one that realizes that when customers are used to paying a certain price, they will continue paying it.

I work in manufacturing. I only raise prices.

Do you wear tights for warmth or to make your legs look better?

My prices do not “return to normal”. They either stay where they are or they go up.

But wait, there's more!

Prices are going up regardless because:

If Russia needs the resources to fund the war in Ukraine, why doesn’t it throw open its doors to visa free western tourism? Enough people would be interested, & it would start to get some hard currency as €, CHF, £, SEK, $, JPY in the tills at shops.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who does this….

If labor costs go up, materials costs, rent, etc I raise my product prices. If those costs go down, I keep my prices right where they are.

I have to rebuild supply chains $ch-ching$

What is the dirtiest thing you have witnessed your wife do?

Tariffs are not paid by the sender (Me) or the receiver (my customers). They are paid at the border by the importer.

I'm losing international sales because of the tariffs and I have to recoup those lost sales somehow

But the importer is now going to charge the receiver. As soon as the tariffs are gone, receivers are going to stop getting that surcharge.

What is the one thing you don't understand that others do?
