In the United States, the introduction of 10% of customs duties on oil imports can lead to the fact that the expenses of Americans for gasoline will increase by $ 22 billion a year. This is reported by Goldman Sachs. It is noted that about 70% of oil imports in the United States and more than two -thirds of import oil entering the American refinery are in Canada and Mexico. According to Bloomberg, the share of these countries has grown in recent years, after US President Donald Trump actually forbade to import oil from Venezuela, and the introduction of duties against them may have tangible consequences. Previously, Trump announced the introduction of tariffs of 25% for imports in the United States of goods from Mexico and Canada, making an exception only for Canadian oil, which will be taxed at a rate of 10%. These duties entered into force on March 4 after a monthly delay. Responsibility for paying duties, as a rule, is assigned to importers - in this case, American companies buying oil and oil products in Canada and Mexico. However, they usually translate at least part of the increased costs of the end consumer. Currently, gasoline in the United States is cheaper than over the past three years: on average in the country - $ 3.1 per gallon.

At the same time, the rise in price of life as a whole has become a problem in the United States, where long -term inflationary expectations of consumers have reached the maximum in almost 30 years. According to the University of Michigan, in February, the Americans expected that about 5-10 years, the annual increase in consumer prices in the country would be 3.5%, which is the highest rate since 1995. Recall that the increase in duties against the three largest trading partners of the United States caused a collapse in the securities market.
