U.S. Supreme Court Agaion Delays Ruling on Trump’s Tariffs

The Supreme Court postponed a ruling on the legality of Trump’s tariffs under the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act amid ongoing legal challenges.

  • On Jan. 14 the U.S. Supreme Court did not issue a ruling on the legality of President Donald Trump's `reciprocal` tariffs, leaving the matter unresolved; it announced decisions in three other cases but could schedule more opinions around Jan. 20.
  • Legal challenges focus on the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977, with Nov. 5 arguments showing the court appeared skeptical and a federal appeals court ruling the tariffs exceeded presidential authority.
  • The administration's tariffs target Korean products with 15 percent duties tied to Seoul's $350 billion pledge, while consumer stocks including Lululemon Athletica Inc. and Mattel Inc. fell on the lack of a ruling.
  • The decision carries heavy financial and political consequences, as a ruling against President Donald Trump could open the way for more than $130 billion in refunds and mark his biggest legal defeat since returning to the White House.
  • Beyond the court fight, the policy aimed to reshape U.S. trade and manufacturing goals as April 2 `Liberation Day` tariffs imposed 10%-50% levies on imports from Canada, Mexico and China to curtail trade deficits and attract foreign investment.
