🔥 $TRUMP TARIFFS FACE COURT TEST, BESSENT CONFIDENT

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says a Supreme Court ruling against Trump’s tariffs is “very unlikely,” signaling strong confidence that the policy will survive legal challenges.

In a recent Fox News interview, Bessent argued that striking down the tariffs would risk disrupting US economic momentum. He credited the policy implemented under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) with driving trillions of dollars in overseas investment and generating substantial revenue for the economy. According to him, the US economy is currently “hot,” and reversing course now would be a major mistake.

⚖️ The Supreme Court of the United States is expected to release opinions on pending cases next week, sparking speculation that a decision on the tariff challenge could arrive soon. While the Treasury says it has enough capital to handle potential refunds, Bessent warned the process would be complex if tariffs were overturned.

🚨 Meanwhile, the White House is preparing a backup plan. Economic adviser Kevin Hassett revealed that Donald Trump could impose a temporary 10% tariff under Section 122 of the Trade Act if needed, keeping trade pressure alive even amid legal setbacks.

📊 What to watch:

The court’s decision could shape trade policy, market sentiment, and global risk assets in the weeks ahead.
