BlockBeats News, July 9th: J.P. Morgan economists Michael Feroli and Abel Reinhard released their latest research report, estimating that following Trump's announcement this week to impose tariffs on 14 countries starting on August 1st, the average tariff rate in the United States will rise from the previous 13.4% to 14.6%. According to independent analysis from Deutsche Bank, the new average tariff rate could exceed 18%. Furthermore, J.P.
