Trump tariff deadline changes again: Will they finally arrive and what does it mean for NZ?

The Trump tariffs are inching closer and closer towards becoming a reality. While they were meant to kick into gear last week, they've been delayed again – this time to August 1. Despite being accused of “chickening out”, Donald Trump has reignited the tariff talk through a series of letters and social media posts – announcing new duties on dozens of countries, if they don’t sign trade deals. In the months since ‘Liberation Day’, only two countries have signed agreements with the US – so is it likely that dozens more will be signed in the next month? Or are we firmly in an era of tit for tat tariff wars, and economic uncertainty?
