    The use of “reciprocal” is interesting because, at least in the dictionary, it has a positive conotation as in help each-other kind of meaning

    Retaliatory tariffs makes more sense no?

      I think that’s what they were counting on. The White House later published the equation behind the tariffs rate but it was exactly the same (exports-imports/imports). They just made it look more complex but the symbols cancelled each other out.

      Trying to obfuscate what they’re doing.
