[QUOTE="collegeballfan, post: 552324, member: 391"] I entered this as a point of information, not making a comment for or against. As an investor this is a important piece of info. As Politico points out a lot of this is importers simply raising inventory levels to moderate the effect of a possible increase in tariffs. There is also the tax cut that left many consumers with a few extra dollars to buy consumer goods (mostly imports). I'm sure none of the US importers that paid the $25 billion (your number bwelbo, but I do not dispute) in tariffs are celebrating even if Treasury is. And the consumers who are paying at the retail level may not be aware that they are doing so. But, this is another sign of a vibrant US economy, even if it not a political pat on the back. [/QUOTE]
