There's bad news and good news.

The article in the link gives an early prediction of the effect of the new tariffs that are expected.

https://www.ttnews.com/articles/trump-china-decoupling

The down side is restoration parts are going to cost more. Buy now for cheaper parts.

The up side is there will be less Chinesium junk. Which should lead to more US manufactured parts in 3 or 4 years. Which hopefully means quality should improve.

Re: There's bad news and good news.

I first want to state that I have not shopped in Wal-Mart in Years.

This will have a Huge effect on Wal-mart.

The ratio of China and other imported goods is 70 to 80% .

They may go down in the books with some other big chain stores that have closed.
