President Donald Trump met privately Monday with the CEOs of Walmart, Target, and Home Depot to discuss how his tariff plans could impact retail imports, according to CNBC. The meeting was described as “productive” and “constructive” by each company. The CEOs highlighted ongoing concerns about rising costs for American consumers. Walmart imports only one-third of its U.S. merchandise, mainly from China and Mexico. Target is more exposed due to its heavy reliance on overseas manufacturing for home goods and apparel. The National Retail Federation warned that additional tariffs would increase the prices of essential goods and create economic uncertainty for American families.
