The U.S. Collected Over $500 Million Daily From Tariffs In April

The United States reported a significant budget surplus of $258 billion in April, marking a 23% increase from the previous year. This rise is attributed to higher tax revenues and an upsurge in tariff collections, as Reuters reported.

Key Facts

  • The U.S. collected over $500 million daily from tariffs in April, showing a significant increase in revenue.
  • Net tariffs totaled $16 billion in April, up by $9 billion from the previous year.
  • For the first seven months of the fiscal year, net tariffs amounted to $63 billion, compared to $48 billion last year.
  • This surge followed President Trump’s tariff hike on Chinese goods to 145% and additional taxes on other imports.

What to Watch

These new revenues might see a decline. The U.S. and China reached a temporary agreement over the weekend to ease imposed tariffs. The U.S. has lowered tariffs on Chinese goods from 145% to 30% for the upcoming 90 days, while China will reduce its tariffs on American goods from 125% to 10%.
