Major U.S. wire manufacturers such as Southwire Co. LLC and Cerro Wire LLC announced price increases for copper wire products, despite Trump exempting basic copper import tariffs. Analysts pointed out that the removal of tariffs could lead to inflationary pressures for American consumers.

Major U.S. wire manufacturers, including Southwire Co. LLC and Cerro Wire LLC, are raising prices on copper wire products. This follows President Trump's decision to exempt basic copper import tariffs, which is expected to benefit U.S. copper processing companies. Analysts indicate that the tariff decision may put inflationary pressure on U.S. consumers. Aisling Hubert from CRU Group pointed out that domestic producers will have greater pricing power, while Peter Schmitz from Wood Mackenzie stated, "Ultimately, someone will pay for this, and that will be the American consumer."
