The apparel industry is bracing for a significant impact as tariffs are set to increase the cost of clothing, potentially ending the era of cheap garments.
What Happened: The Trump administration&#8217;s tariffs are poised to hit the clothing industry particularly hard<a href="https://www.marketplace.org/2025/04/04/tariffs-could-bring-an-end-to-the-days-of-cheap-clothing/">, reported</a> Marketplace on Monday. The majority of clothes and shoes purchased in the U.S. are imported, with a significant portion coming from Southeast Asian countries. These imports are soon to be subject to tariffs exceeding 30%.
When President Trump increased&nbsp;taxes on imports from China&nbsp;during his first term, many apparel companies shifted their operations, particularly to Vietnam, as noted by David Swartz of Morningstar. However, with the new&nbsp;tariffs targeting all U.S. trading&nbsp;partners, companies have no place to escape. &#8220;They&nbsp;cannot move production to other&nbsp;countries to avoid a tariff&nbsp;in one country in any&nbsp;realistic time frame,&#8221; Swartz said.

Stephen Lamar, head of the American Apparel and Footwear Association, ruled out the possibility of moving garment manufacturing to the U.S., citing a lack of labor, skill sets, infrastructure, and capabilities to scale up production. Denise Green at Cornell University added, &#8220;We&#8217;re not going to be able to buy clothing as inexpensively as we have in the past.&#8221;
Why It Matters: <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44656680/trumps-10-tariff-on-most-imports-is-finally-here-taking-effect-saturday">The new tariffs</a>, part of President Trump&#8217;s strategy to stimulate domestic investment by companies seeking to evade import taxes, have sparked a significant market reaction, escalating U.S. duties to their highest level in over a century.
The tariffs have stirred global markets, leading to a <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/media/25/04/44657800/trumps-tariffs-stir-global-markets-wall-street-loses-2-trillion-and-more-this-week-in-economics">loss of $2 trillion</a> on Wall Street. <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/04/44660475/more-than-50-nations-ready-to-revisit-tariffs-says-white-house-advisor">Over 50 countries</a>, targets of reciprocal tariffs by the U.S., have since reached out to begin negotiations on the high import tariffs, according to the White House.

U.S. stock futures fell sharply on Monday after two days of decline last week. Futures of major benchmark indices were over 3% lower in premarket trading.
The selloff that started on Thursday intensified on Friday as China introduced its retaliatory measures to U.S. tariffs. As of Friday, the S&amp;P 500 was nearing the bear market zone as it closed 17.46% lower than its previous record high of 6,147.43 points.
Dow was 14.99% down from its 52-week high of 45,073.63 points, whereas the Nasdaq 100 was already in the bear market territory, 21.71% lower from its high of 22,222.61 points.
The hopes of a Fed &#8216;put&#8217; remained on standby as Jerome Powell said Friday that "It is too soon to say what will be the appropriate path for monetary policy.&#8221;
The 10-year Treasury bond yielded 3.93% and the two-year bond was at 3.51%. However, the CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>&#8216;s projections rose, showing markets pricing a 48.4% likelihood of the Federal Reserve easing the current interest rates in its May meeting.

Cues From Last Session:
U.S. stocks closed Friday lower, with all sectors in the red. Financials, energy, and information technology led the S&amp;P 500 sector declines.
Friday&#8217;s economic data showed strong March nonfarm payroll growth grew 228,000, exceeding expectations, though the unemployment rate unexpectedly rose to 4.2%, and average hourly earnings increased as predicted by 0.3% monthly, and 3.8% year-over-year.
The S&amp;P 500 Index recorded its worst weekly decline since March 2020. With the S&amp;P 500 plunging 10.5% over Thursday and Friday, this marks only the fourth time such a sharp two-day drawdown has occurred in modern market history—joining October 1987, September 2008, March 2020, and now April 2025.

Insights From Analysts:
The S&amp;P 500 and Dow are showing a worrying pattern of steep, consecutive drops, reminiscent of the Great Depression, according to the experts.
Carson Research&#8217;s chief market strategist, Ryan Detrick, noted on X that a 4% drop in the S&amp;P 500 on Monday would be its third straight over 4% loss, a pattern seen only three times before, all during the Great Depression.

Meanwhile, according to Craig Shapiro from 3-Circle Investments by The Bear Traps Report, the absence of this perceived "Trump put" or "Fed put" could trigger a swift and significant market downturn.
Shapiro argues the market sought assurance from Trump or the Fed, but recent events show both safety nets are further away than expected. He predicts Fed intervention only if the Treasury market becomes unstable.
Shapiro warned, "All this being said, the lack of the ‘put' for now means I think we are going to go significantly lower very quickly until UsT market dysfunction starts and the Fed says ‘no mas' because this will eventually bleed into economic activity and exacerbate the slowdown."
Despite growing skepticism, Stephanie Link, the chief investment strategist and the head of investment solutions at Hightower Advisors, said, &#8220;Buy.&#8221;

US Stock Futures Slump Following Massive Tariff-Induced Selloff: Experts Warn Of A Brewing 'Great Depression-Like' Pattern

Tesla Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) Cybertruck, a brainchild of Elon Musk, has been dubbed the auto industry&#8217;s most significant flop in decades, according to a report.
What Happened: The auto industry has seen many infamous flops, including Ford's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) Edsel and Pinto, GM's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) Pontiac Aztek, and the Delorean DMC-12. Now, Musk's Tesla Cybertruck is being added to that list of failures, according to <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/alanohnsman/2025/04/03/elons-edsel-tesla-cybertruck-is-the-auto-industrys-biggest-flop-in-decades/">Forbes</a>. Musk&#8217;s angular pickup truck fell short of his ambitious sales target by a massive 84%, with no signs of a turnaround in sight.
The vehicle&#8217;s sales have drastically underperformed Musk&#8217;s predictions, and its quality reputation has been marred by eight recalls within the past 13 months. Despite Musk&#8217;s ambitious forecast of 250,000 annual sales,&nbsp;Tesla managed to sell just under 40,000 Cybertrucks in 2024, its inaugural year on the market. The sales trend has continued to dip in 2025, contributing to a 13% decline in Tesla&#8217;s overall sales in Q1.
Experts explained that the Cybertruck is either too big or doesn&#8217;t meet pedestrian safety regulations in certain countries, limiting its potential for increased sales through exports.
Eric Noble, president of CARLAB, likened the Cybertruck&#8217;s failure to Ford&#8217;s infamous Edsel, stating, &#8220;It's right up there with Edsel&#8221;. &#8220;It&#8217;s&nbsp;a huge swing and a&nbsp;huge miss,&#8221; added Noble. 
The Cybertruck&#8217;s flop is not solely due to poor sales and quality issues but is also attributed to Musk&#8217;s contentious politics and job-cutting role at DOGE, which have incited worldwide Tesla protests.

Why It Matters: Despite Musk&#8217;s claim of over a million reservations for the Cybertruck, Tesla&#8217;s&nbsp;estimates of massive demand has&nbsp;proven to be misguided. The vehicle&#8217;s size and non-compliance with some countries&#8217; pedestrian safety rules have curtailed its potential for overseas sales.&nbsp;Glenn Mercer, the head of Cleveland-based&nbsp;advisory firm GM Automotive, stated, &#8220;They&nbsp;haven't sold a lot and&nbsp;it's unlikely in this case&nbsp;that overseas markets can save&nbsp;them.&#8221;
Further, the Cybertruck&#8217;s sales have been adversely impacted by recall-related fixes, with a starting price of $82,000. Tesla&#8217;s overall sales have also taken a hit this year, with deliveries falling&nbsp;13% in the first quarter&nbsp;to 337,000 units, significantly&nbsp;below consensus expectations of 408,000.
Earlier this year, Ross Gerber, CEO of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth and Investment Management, highlighted Tesla&#8217;s struggling Cybertruck sales in a social media post, noting figures significantly below company projections. &#8220;Tesla has sold only 47k Cybertrucks total according to the recall notice. This is really bad for a product that was supposed to sell 250k units a year,&#8221; Gerber wrote.
Tesla has a momentum rating of 93.32% and a quality rating of 97.03%, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TSLA" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga&#8217;s Proprietary Edge Rankings</a>.

Is Tesla Cybertruck The Biggest Automotive Blunder In Decades After Ford's Edsel? 'It's A Huge Swing And A Huge Miss,' Says Expert

Netflix Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) has been identified as a promising investment option by an analyst, demonstrating resilience amid market volatility. 
What Happened: The streaming giant&#8217;s digital, consumer-facing business model and robust value proposition make it a strong contender even during a recession, <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/article/4773216-netflix-one-of-the-only-fast-growing-tariff-shelters">according</a> to Seeking Alpha analyst YR Research. 
Netflix&#8217;s viewership saw a nearly 8% increase in Q1&#8217;25, indicating strong subscriber and revenue growth. Despite its premium trading, current consensus estimates seem conservative, leading to a $1,000 price target based on a 33x multiple on 2026 earnings, the analyst said.
The company&#8217;s growth is driven by its extensive original programming, superior digital platform, and a robust slate of licensed content. Netflix&#8217;s engagement and viewing figures have surpassed other paid streaming platforms, creating a cycle of content and subscriber growth that competitors find challenging to match.
Over the past decade, Netflix&#8217;s EPS has grown at an impressive&nbsp;41% CAGR, and the stock&nbsp;has returned over 1,300%. The company estimates that it has only captured 40% of the total addressable market, indicating significant growth potential.

Netflix&#8217;s Q1-25 results showed a 7.6% Y/Y increase in Top 10 views, the fastest growth in the company&#8217;s tracking history. The company&#8217;s share of viewing, as measured by Nielsen,&nbsp;reached an all-time high of&nbsp;8.6% in January.
Why It Matters: Global markets have been on a rollercoaster ride due to President Donald <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/media/25/04/44657800/trumps-tariffs-stir-global-markets-wall-street-loses-2-trillion-and-more-this-week-in-economics">Trump'</a><a href="https://in.benzinga.com/media/25/04/44657800/trumps-tariffs-stir-global-markets-wall-street-loses-2-trillion-and-more-this-week-in-economics">s new trade tariffs</a>. The U.S. markets faced a severe downturn as tensions between the U.S. and China escalated following the announcement of new tariffs by President Donald Trump, leading to S&amp;P 500 companies <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44655719/trump-tariffs-erode-5-trillion-in-market-cap-in-2-days-as-china-retaliates-jerome-powell-warns-of-inflation">losing $5 trillion</a> in value.
Meanwhile, U.S. stock futures plunged Sunday night, deepening last week's dramatic selloff as the Biden administration held firm on its aggressive new tariff agenda despite intensifying market backlash.

The tech-heavy Nasdaq-100 took the hardest hit, plunging 807.50 points, or 4.60%, to 16,731.50 at the time of writing.
The U.S. dollar also lost ground, with the Dollar Index slipping 0.23% to 102.79, reflecting growing investor unease as global trade tensions escalate.

Billionaire investor Bill Ackman and CEO of Pershing Square Capital Management, warned Sunday that President Donald Trump&#8216;s sweeping tariff policies are damaging market confidence <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/04/44660779/sp-500-dow-jones-on-course-to-mimic-rare-consecutive-losses-not-seen-since-the-great-depression-whats-driving-the-fear">during a historic global selloff</a>.
What Happened: &#8220;To state the obvious, it does not help our country&#8217;s and our president&#8217;s negotiating position to be trying to strike deals while our market is collapsing,&#8221; Ackman posted on X. &#8220;Whoever is recommending that idea to President Donald Trump should be fired now.&#8221;
When challenged that a 5% market dip demonstrated U.S. seriousness, Ackman replied, &#8220;It is going to be a lot more than 5%.&#8221;
U.S. stock futures continued plummeting Sunday evening, with Dow futures falling over 1,000 points (3.26%) and Nasdaq futures dropping 4.60%. The selloff follows the S&amp;P 500, tracked by SPDR S&amp;P 500&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) worst performance since March 2020, plunging 6% Friday and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44659686/stock-futures-tank-dow-sheds-over-1000-points-as-white-house-remains-firm-on-tariffs-trump-says-sometimes-you-have-to-take-medicine">pushing its two-day losses past 10%</a>.

He warned of an &#8220;economic nuclear winter&#8221; if current policies persist, particularly impacting low-income consumers already under economic stress.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has defended the administration&#8217;s stance, attributing the selloff to overvalued technology stocks rather than tariff policy. &#8220;This isn&#8217;t about tariffs, it&#8217;s about a dose of reality in the AI space,&#8221; Bessent claimed.
Trump showed little concern <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44660089/japans-nikkei-futures-halted-hang-seng-crashes-8-8-as-global-market-rout-accelerates-on-tariff-shock-analyst-says-trumps-iphone-only-real-circuit-breaker">about market losses on Sunday</a>, stating, &#8220;I don&#8217;t want anything to go down, but sometimes you have to take medicine to fix something.&#8221;

Bill Ackman Blames Market Collapse On Tariff Timing, Says Trump Advisor 'Should Be Fired Now:' Predicts 'A Lot More Than 5%' Dip

Last week, Donald Trump announced <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/04/44641631/trumps-reciprocal-tariffs-threaten-to-derail-big-techs-billion-dollar-ai-infrastructure-plans-analysts-warn-stargate-was-already-unlikely-to-get-to-that-scale">"reciprocal" tariffs that have</a> caused significant turbulence in global markets, with the stock prices of major U.S. tech companies, known as the &#8220;Magnificent 7,&#8221; plummeting and wiping out nearly $1.8 trillion in market value.
What Happened: On Sunday, Dan Ives, an analyst from Wedbush Securities, warned that Trump&#8217;s tariffs could severely hinder the U.S. tech sector's growth.
Ives underscored the long-term impact of the trade policies, stating, &#8220;Investors know math and the sad reality&#8221; — suggesting the U.S. tech industry could be set back by a decade if these tariffs remain in place.

Trump&#8217;s reciprocal tariff strategy, which includes a 10% universal tariff on all imports and additional duties targeting countries like China, India, and the EU, sparked a massive sell-off in the stock market.

Why It Matters: The tariffs have far-reaching consequences, especially for the U.S. tech sector, which relies heavily on global supply chains. Apple, for example, could see the price of an iPhone 16 Pro Max soar <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/44655937/trump-tariffs-could-spike-iphone-prices-to-almost-2300-if-apple-decides-to-pass-on-the-costs-to-buyers">from $1,599 to around $2,300</a>, according to industry analysts.
Furthermore, the tariffs could push tech companies to reconsider their operations and manufacturing locations. While the U.S. government is betting on reshoring jobs, the increasing cost of labor and the slow pace of manufacturing build-outs could mean limited job growth, particularly with increasing automation.
Ives previously pointed out that <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/04/44647999/trumps-tariff-war-could-take-us-tech-industry-back-a-decade-while-china-steam-rolls-ahead-analyst-says">tech earnings would likely decline by 15%</a>, and the price of consumer electronics could rise by up to 50%, burdening American consumers.
Despite a robust U.S. labor market <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44647678/nasdaq-100-enters-bear-market-dow-in-correction-territory-as-traders-anxiously-await-powell-remarks">that added 228,000 jobs in March</a>, escalating trade tensions have cast a shadow over the positive economic momentum.
Comparisons to the infamous Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930 — which deepened the Great Depression — are fueling concerns about the broader global economic outlook.

At a current reading of 4.2, the index remained in the &#8220;Extreme Fear&#8221; zone on Friday, versus a prior reading of 6.0.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

Donald Trump remains unwavering in his devotion to tariffs, describing them as "a beautiful word" that protects American industry.
What Happened: In an October 2024 <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZfN0Hmed8RM">interview</a> with finance expert Dave Ramsey, the former president insisted that imposing duties on foreign goods can "save our country," despite ongoing debates over economic repercussions.
Trump argues that tariffs level the playing field for small businesses. Responding to Ramsey's concern about government interference, Trump insisted that a targeted approach prevents American companies from being undercut by nations like China. He warned that without tariffs, large exporters can flood the U.S. market with cheap products, force local businesses to shutter, then buy those businesses cheaply before raising prices.
For Trump, history is proof that tariffs work. He cited the 1890s — a period he said made America "the richest point in its history" — when revenue from these import taxes funded the government, even prompting a special committee to decide how to spend the surplus. By contrast, Trump noted that an income tax system eventually replaced what he saw as a more direct way to defend U.S. jobs and manufacturing.
That said, according to a MarketWatch <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/trump-says-america-was-at-its-richest-in-the-late-1800s-here-are-the-facts-63077921">report</a>, historians assert that while the U.S. ascended economically from 1870 to 1913, it was not at its wealthiest, and tariffs did not drive that growth. They emphasize that innovation, education, and immigration, rather than protectionist policies, powered America&#8217;s rise. Experts note that life remained harder for ordinary citizens, as there were no modern safety nets or worker protections.

Trump also pointed to success in the steel industry, where he believes levies on imported steel stopped unfair dumping. Without such measures, he claims, foreign governments would "steal our factories, our workers, and our jobs." This emphasis on fortifying small businesses aligns with Ramsey's own belief that entrepreneurs drive the American economy.
Why It Matters: Dave Ramsey and his co-host Ken Coleman, in a more recent conversation, emphasize that tariffs inevitably raise consumer prices, and they caution that businesses will <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44172672/dave-ramsey-says-no-question-tariffs-will-100-raise-prices-walmart-doesnt-pay-taxes-you-pay-taxes-when-you-buy-potato-chips-at-walmart">pass these costs</a> along rather than absorb them. In their discussion, Ramsey downplays the potential fallout by highlighting the existing trade taxes Mexico and other countries impose on U.S. exports.
He believes these measures act more like negotiating tactics than doomsday policies and encourages people not to panic, arguing that debt-free households worry far less about inflation than those relying on credit.
Critics challenge Ramsey's explanations, particularly his claim that Mexico charges a 33% tariff on American goods. Observers point out that he likely confused Mexico's 16% value-added tax (VAT) with tariffs, which remain more targeted and often apply to countries lacking free trade agreements. Viewers also question his <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44067456/ive-got-a-friend-building-a-house-in-cabo-dave-ramsey-tries-to-explain-trumps-tariffs-but-people-say-hes-out-of-touch-and-wrong">anecdote about a friend</a> building a house in Cabo, arguing that his experience with taxes on appliances does not reflect the reality most consumers face.
Audience members accuse Ramsey of being out of touch with average Americans, citing his reliance on personal stories that involve wealthy acquaintances. Despite these criticisms, Ramsey's central message remains consistent: tariffs will raise prices for consumers, and they serve as a method of pushing trading partners to negotiate terms that favor American businesses.

Levi Strauss, Dave & Buster's Entertainment And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Monday

BlackRock Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLK#NYSE">BLK</a>) CEO, Larry Fink believes that America&#8217;s plans for a manufacturing resurgence have several shortcomings that tariffs alone may not address. This includes unfavorable demographics and a deeply flawed immigration policy, among other things.
What Happened: Speaking at CERAWeek, an annual energy conference organized by S&amp;P Global Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPGI#NYSE">SPGI</a>) nearly a month ago, Fink highlighted the country&#8217;s labor shortages, which are only set to get worse with the new administration&#8217;s immigration policies and an increasingly tough stance on illegal immigration.
Fink said that the pace at which deportations are taking place will have a severe impact on the agriculture sector, with not nearly enough hands to harvest the crops when spring arrives. 
&#8220;70% of the men and women who work in agriculture were not born in the United States, he says, and while several of them are U.S. citizens, or have work permits, many of them do not.&#8221; It&#8217;s a similar scenario for construction, with 40% of workers not born in the country, putting them at risk of deportation.

The famed pioneer of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles further states that this will have an inflationary effect on the economy. Fink also mentions having emphasized the current &#8216;shortage of electricians to build AI data centers&#8217; to members of the Trump team.

This was a shot at the Donald Trump administration&#8217;s plans for reindustrialization in the U.S. The BlackRock CEO is treading cautiously on the political front, as evidenced by <a href="https://www.blackrock.com/corporate/investor-relations/larry-fink-annual-chairmans-letter">his recent annual letter</a> that shies away from any mention of Trump, tariffs, ESG, DEI, or climate change.
Why It Matters: Several other business leaders, analysts, and industry experts have highlighted the improbability of bringing manufacturing back in its entirety to the United States.
Financial commentator Peter Schiff, was one such notable voice last week, who said that it would cost Nike Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) more to manufacture in the U.S. than it would to just pay the tariffs and pass on the costs to consumers while exploring other markets to make up for lost sales
The biggest roadblock for U.S. manufacturing is shortages in skilled labor. According to a <a href="https://www.bain.com/insights/manufacturers-have-plenty-of-jobs-but-few-takers/">recent report</a> by Bain &amp; Company, nearly 50% of manufacturing workers in the country are aged 50 and above, and 25% are aged 55 and above, but as they start to retire, there aren&#8217;t enough Gen Z workers to fill these jobs.
According to a report by <a href="https://themanufacturinginstitute.org/">The Manufacturing Institute</a>, there is a monumental shortage of workers in the U.S. today for jobs that require more than a high-school diploma, but less than a four-year college degree. The candidates for such jobs were immigrants, but now that too is no longer an option for the industry.
At 340 million, the United States has a <a href="https://www.worldometers.info/world-population/us-population/">lot bigger workforce today</a> than it did during its Industrial Revolution in the early 1900s, but the country today is very different culturally and demographically. 
For one, the percentage of the country&#8217;s population between the ages of 15 and 30 stands at 20% today, as opposed to 54% in the 1900s. Besides this, back-breaking manufacturing jobs are no longer sought after by the nation&#8217;s youth, not that they ever were.
