FORD’S $15 Billion Shock: Trump Tariffs Spark Industry Chaos
— Ford Motor Company says it could lose $15 billion, blaming President Trump’s tariffs for the hit. The company has pulled its yearly financial forecast, warning that the entire auto industry might face over $100 billion in losses. Ford once hoped to earn up to $8.5 billion in 2025, but those plans are now on hold.
To fight back, Ford is rerouting cars between Mexico and Canada to dodge some of the new taxes. Even with these moves, leaders at Ford say trade fights are shaking up markets and scaring off investors.
This big loss comes from Trump’s “America First” trade plan. While it aims to protect American jobs, some companies say it’s causing trouble not just for car makers but other businesses too.
