Here’s a concise overview—**as of August 1, 2025**—on how **Trump’s tariffs** are affecting the **U.S. economy and manufacturing**, based on the latest expert analyses:

---

## 📉 Economic Effects & Growth

* **Real GDP growth** is estimated to be **0.5 to 0.9 percentage points lower in 2025**, depending on tariff scenarios.

➤ The U.S. economy is projected to be **0.4–0.6% smaller long‑term**, equivalent to about **\$110–135 billion annually**.

([The Budget Lab at Yale][1])

* **Unemployment** is forecast to rise by **0.3–0.5 percentage points**, with **500K+ jobs lost** by the end of the year.

([The Budget Lab at Yale][2], [The Budget Lab at Yale][3])

* Consumer **purchasing power declines** by \~\$2,000–3,800 per household in 2025 due to price increases.

([The Budget Lab at Yale][1], [The Budget Lab at Yale][4])

---

## 🧾 Inflation & Consumer Prices

* **Overall prices** up \~1.3–1.5% in the short term directly due to tariffs.

➤ Apparel and footwear prices have jumped **15–18% long term**, with shoes up **33% short term**.

([The Budget Lab at Yale][4])

* **Manufacturing input costs** are up **2–4.5%**, squeezing margins and dampening hiring.

➤ This includes steel, electronics, copper (50% tariff effect), auto parts, and appliances.

([apnews.com][5], [cbsnews.com][6])

---

## 🏭 Manufacturing: Winners & Losers

* **Output in non-advanced manufacturing** could rise by **\~2.0–2.6% long term**, especially for steel-intensive sectors.

➤ **Advanced manufacturing** declines by **\~2.8%** due to higher input costs and disrupted supply chains.

([The Budget Lab at Yale][2])

* According to the **San Francisco Fed**, tariffs could:

* Boost factory jobs locally, but

* **Reduce overall employment by \~0.2%, lower real income by \~0.4%** nationally over four years.

([Reuters][7])

---

## 🏛️ Federal Revenue & Fiscal Impact

* Federal tariff revenue for 2025 is projected at **\$150–170 billion**, or \~0.5–0.6% of GDP—**the largest tax hike since 1993**.

([taxfoundation.org][8])

* Long-term estimates suggest **\$3.9 trillion in tariff revenue over the next decade**, though economic drag may reduce actual yields.

([piie.com][9])

---

## ⚠️ Business Uncertainty & Investment

* Firms are postponing major investments, delaying hiring, and **front-loading imports** to hedge against future tariff spikes.

([aljazeera.com][10])

* Legal challenges to emergency tariff authority (Section 232) continue, adding further business uncertainty.

([apnews.com][11])

---

## 🧑‍💼 Homeowner & Worker Impact

* Households face an **additional \$2,000–2,400 in costs in 2025**, especially low- to middle-income ones.

([gov.ca.gov][12])

* **Job losses and wage stagnation** in services and agriculture overshadow modest job gains in manufacturing.

([timesofindia.indiatimes.com][13])

### ✅ **Quick Summary**

| Metric | Impact Summary |

| ---------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- |

| Real GDP | –0.5% to –0.9% growth; long-run economy –0.4% |

| Unemployment | +0.3–0.5% → \~500K fewer jobs |

| Household Purchasing Power | –\$2K to \$3.8K in lost disposable income |

| Manufacturing Output | Non‑advanced ↑ \~2–2.6%, advanced ↓ \~2.8% |

| Federal Revenue from Tariffs | \~\$150–170B in 2025 (+0.5–0.6% of GDP) |
