The early winners and losers of Trump's tariff battle with Canada, Mexico, China and Europe
Briefly

President Trump's tariffs on steel and aluminum aim to bolster the US economy, creating winners like domestic manufacturers such as US Steel and Cleveland Cliffs. The tariffs, pegged at 25%, have driven steel prices to their highest in months, while aluminum costs surged significantly. Companies like Anheuser-Busch are capitalizing on their domestic supply chains, enhancing their market position. However, American automakers face increased manufacturing costs. Additionally, Scott Lincicome indicates that those owning warehouse space will prosper due to heightened stockpiling needs across industries.
Domestic producers like US Steel and Cleveland Cliffs are poised to benefit from Trump's 25% tariffs, driving a resurgence in US steel and aluminum production.
Anheuser-Busch views the tariffs positively, noting that 99% of its beer ingredients are sourced domestically, positioning it stronger against rivals.
Scott Lincicome from the Cato Institute highlights that companies owning warehouse space in the US are likely to thrive due to increased stockpiling.
Automakers, including GM and Ford, face increased manufacturing costs, with estimates suggesting a $400 rise per vehicle if tariffs stay in effect.
