Iindaba - Ukuqokelela impahla kuxakekile! Abathumeli baseMelika bayakhuphisana ngokuchasene neerhafu zikaTrump

Ngaphambi kokuba uMongameli uDonald Trump acwangcise iirhafu ezintsha (ezinokuvuselela imfazwe yorhwebo phakathi kwamazwe anamandla kwezoqoqosho kwihlabathi), ezinye iinkampani zazigcina impahla, izinto zokudlala, ifenitshala, kunye nezinto ze-elektroniki, nto leyo eyakhokelela ekubeni iTshayina ikwazi ukungenisa impahla kwamanye amazwe kulo nyaka.
UTrump wangena eofisini ngoJanuwari 20, esongela ngokubeka irhafu ye-10% ukuya kwi-60% kwiimpahla zaseTshayina. Ixesha lakhe lokuqala lalijolise kakhulu kwizinto zaseTshayina, kwaye iingcali zezoqoqosho kunye neengcali zorhwebo ziqikelela ukuba umjikelo wakhe olandelayo werhafu unokusebenza kwiimveliso ezigqityiweyo.
UFrederic Neumann, ingcali yezoqoqosho eyintloko yaseAsia kwiHSBC eHong Kong, uthe, “Ngenxa yokuba abathumeli bempahla bafuna ukulungisa iirhafu ezinokubakho kwiimpahla zabathengi, kubekho ukwanda kokuthunyelwa kweemveliso zokugqibela e-China e-US”
Amagosa orhwebo aseTshayina axele ngoMvulo ukuba ukuthunyelwa kwamanye amazwe kunyuke kwaya kumanqanaba arekhodiweyo ngoDisemba.
ULu Daliang, isithethi se-General Administration of Customs, uthe kwingqungquthela yabezindaba eBeijing ukuba ukunyuka okukhulu kubonakalisa inkxalabo malunga nokwanda kokhuseleko lorhwebo.

Ngokutsho komboneleli wedatha yorhwebo iDescartes Systems Group, amazibuko ase-US acubungula iimpahla ezivela eTshayina zilingana ne-451,000izikhongozeli eziziimitha ezingamashumi amanengoDisemba, ukunyuka konyaka nge-14.5%.
UDescartes ubonise ukuba ukungeniswa kwamanye amazwe kweebhedi, iithoyi zeplastiki, oomatshini, kunye nezinye iimvelisoukusuka eTshayina ukuya eMelikaiza kukhula nge-15% xa kuthelekiswa nowama-2023.
UHelen waseTroy Ltd, umthengisi wezixhobo zasekhitshini ze-OXO, iibhotile zamanzi zeHydro Flask, kunye namayeza athengiswa ngaphandle kwekhawuntara kaVicks, unegalelo kolu hlumo. Abaphathi abakhankanyiweyo kwingeniso yeveki ephelileyo bathi inkampani ibisakha uluhlu lwezinto ezicwangcisiweyo ukunciphisa iingozi zerhafu.
“Ngeentsuku ezimbalwa ngaphambi kokubekwa esikhundleni, ndikholelwa ukuba siza kucacisa ngakumbi xa uMongameli uTrump ethatha izintambo,” utshilo i-CEO yeTroy uNoel Geoffroy malunga nomgaqo-nkqubo omtsha werhafu wase-US.
I-MSC Industrial Direct, inkampani ehambisa izixhobo, umbane kunye nezinto zokufaka amanzi, ifumana malunga ne-10% yezinto ezisetyenzisiweyo eTshayina. Abaphathi baxelele abatyali-mali kwiveki ephelileyo ukuba inkampani iqokelela iimveliso zayo ezidumileyo ezinokujongana nemingcipheko emitsha yerhafu ngelixa ikwakhuthaza iimpahla ezenziwe eMelika.
Njengoko iinkampani zijonga ngokusondeleyo idatha yorhwebo, kunzima ukufumanisa impembelelo yokwenyani yemingcipheko yerhafu kaTrump kwingeniso iyonke yokungenisa impahla ngaphandle.

Ukuqina kwemfuno
Olu hlalutyo luyinkimbinkimbi ngakumbi ngabathengi baseMelika abazinzileyo abaye bavuselela imfuno. Abanye abathumeli-mpahla bangenise nesitokhwe sokhuseleko ukukhusela ukuphazamiseka okuvela kuhlaselo lwaseHouthi kufutshane nendlela emfutshane yorhwebo lwaseSuez Canal, kunye neengxabano zabasebenzi kumazibuko ase-East Coast naseGulf Coast.
Okwangoku, uTrump usongela ngokubeka irhafu kwiimpahla ezivela kwamanye amazwe amaninzi, kuquka oomakhelwane baseMelika iMexico neKhanada.
I-Walmart, umsebenzisi omkhulu weukuthunyelwa kweekhonteyina, ngomnye wabathengisi abathi abahlalutyi bedatha yempahla bandise ukungeniswa kwempahla kwiinyanga zakutshanje. I-Walmart ayizange ithethe ngolu vavanyo.
Idatha evela kwi-S&P Global Market Intelligence ibonisa ukukhula okukhulu kwiindidi ezahlukeneyo zeempahla ezingeniswe e-US zivela kuyo yonke imithombo yejografi kwikota yesine.
Iimpahla nempahla zinyuke nge-20.7%; iimveliso zokuzonwabisa, ikakhulu izinto zokudlala, zinyuke nge-15.4%; iimpahla zasekhaya zinyuke nge-13.4%; kwaye izixhobo zasekhaya kunye nezixhobo ze-elektroniki ezisetyenziswa ngabathengi zinyuke nge-9.6% kunye ne-7.9%, ngokulandelelana.
I-S&P ibike ukuba iindidi ezibalulekileyo zabathengi ezifana nokhathalelo lwasekhaya nolwabantu, kunye nokutya neziselo, zinyuke nge-14.2% kunye ne-12.5%, ngokulandelelana.
UMichael O'Shaughnessy, i-CEO ye-Element Electronics Corp., uphawule ukwanda kweempahla ezithunyelwa eMelika ekupheleni konyaka.
I-Element ingenisa ngokuyintloko izinto ezivela eTshayina ukuze zisetyenziswe kwisityalo sayo sokudibanisa iiTV esisicaba eWinnsboro, eMzantsi Carolina, indawo yokugqibela enkulu yokuvelisa iiTV eMelika. Ikwangenisa neeTV ezigqityiweyo. Le nkampani yakhe i-buffer stock njengoko abasebenzi basezikhepheni besongela ukuvala amazibuko ase-East Coast.
Nangona kunjalo, u-O'Shaughnessy uthe igalelo azimiseleyo okanye analo lokulizisa lilinganiselwe.
“Akukho ndawo yokubeka yonke into,” utshilo. “Ukongeza, kukho imida yemali yokusebenza. Ikubiza imali yonke imihla.”
