Want evidence Trump’s tariffs are upending the global economy?

South Korea's exports dropped 5.2% in April's first 20 days, driven by Trump's tariffs on steel, aluminum, and autos. Shipments of cars and steel fell 6.5% and 8.7%, respectively, with U.S.-bound exports declining 14.3%. Semiconductor exports rose 10.2%, remaining tariff-exempt for now. Experts note trade disruptions and uncertainty, potentially affecting future data and negotiations.
