The tariffs are raising $100 billion less than Trump expected. Pantheon Macro sees 3 reasons why, starting with China | Fortune

  • Tariff revenues are about $100 billion below White House expectations, based on data through late November.
  • The expected $400 billion annualized tariff receipts imply an average tariff rate near 12%, well below earlier near-20% forecasts.
  • China imports have fallen 30%, and its share of U.S. imports dropped to 9%, with rerouting to Vietnam increasing 6% overall.
  • USMCA compliance appears higher than expected, reducing tariff exposure for Canada and Mexico.
  • Tariffs on Canada and Mexico show lower realized AETRs than anticipated, boosting exemptions under USMCA.
  • A surge in tariff-exempt AI equipment imports partly masks other tariff declines.
  • Pantheon projects tariff revenues could recover if current trends persist, but still remain below earlier projections.
  • Tariffs are cited as a tax by shoppers and consumers, affecting prices and inflation.
  • Analysts warn tariff-driven inflation may persist into 2026, impacting core prices.
  • The Fortune analysis attributes the revenue gap to three main factors identified by Pantheon: China trade, USMCA compliance, and AI import surges.
