Abstract:
On April 2, 2025, the president of The United States of America, Donald J. Trump placed a baseline 10% tariff on US imports from all countries, labeling it as “Liberation Day”. This tariff was higher for countries that imposed higher tariffs on American goods [1], with certain exceptions [2]. Similarly, lower tariffs on the US resulted in lower tariffs from the US. These tariffs were placed to lower the US trade deficit and increase national good production [3]. To understand the impact of large economic events such as the implementation of these tariffs, economists use a classical approach based on past events and intuition to. Although the classical method provides success to a high degree, AI and machine learning propose a potentially more accurate and efficient method. This paper uses machine learning to evaluate the 2025 US tariffs and predict the impacts on US trade.
