Best Buy just dropped a bombshell, slashing its 2025 forecast and blaming tariffs for the downturn. The electronics giant now expects sales to fall by 1% instead of rising by 2%, with profit projections cut across the board. This isn’t just another missed target, it’s a warning shot that could ripple across American life. Best Buy sources about 30% to 35% of its products from China, ...
Coca-Cola Announces Targeted ‘Downscale’ Of US Manufacturing
Coca-Cola isn’t just shutting down bottling plants, it’s rewriting what it means to be a global beverage brand.

Target’s Contrarian Comeback Strategy Has Them Competing With Dollar General
Most investors have written off Target. Its stock is down 31% over the past year while Walmart hits record highs. The storyline is bleak, middle-class shoppers have abandoned the "Tarzhay" ideal, Wall Street sees slipping market share in 20 of 35 categories, and the company recently missed earnings by $0.35 per share.

Tariffs Lead to Historic Drop in U.S. Imports – What It Means for Consumers
In April 2025, the U.S. economy absorbed a jarring blow: imports nosedived by 20% in a single month, the steepest drop on record, after sweeping Trump-era tariffs kicked in.
