Description

This year it might not be the Grinch who threatens to steal Christmas, but tariffs. According to an analysis by Lending Tree, if Trump’s tariffs had been in place last year, they would have increased consumer costs by $28 billion — about $130 per shopper. John Yang speaks with Nathan Gordon, president of online retailer Christmas Central, about the effect of tariffs on seasonal shopping.
