for the retail industry plus &#8220;a large dose of uncertainty,&#8221; says GlobalData managing director Neil Saunders.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The main positive for retail is that President Trump will almost certainly renew the tax cut package he introduced during his first term in 2017, which was due to expire at the end of 2025. This will be broadly helpful to consumer incomes, although retailers should not expect to see a surge in spending as it is about rolling over an existing policy that is already baked into consumer behavior,&#8221; the retail analyst said in an emailed note. &#8220;The huge downside to retail comes from Trump&#8217;s proposals on tariffs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If Trump makes good on his promise to raise tariffs on goods made overseas, retailers will bear the brunt of that cost, said Saunders.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Given the trade between Chinese manufacturers and US retailers, a strict tariff policy would mean retailers initially either taking a massive hit on profits or being forced to put up prices, which would fuel inflation and dampen retail volume growth,&#8221; said Saunders. &#8220;Over time, supply chains would adjust to a new tariff regime, but this would not happen overnight and would be incredibly disruptive.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Saunders noted that there&#8217;s a &#8220;small hope&#8221; that Trump&#8217;s comments on raising tariffs are more of a negotiating tactic and any eventual changes could be &#8220;modest in scope.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8211;Gabrielle Fonrouge<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"108058830-post\">\n<h2 class=\"LiveBlogBody-subtitle\">Abortion ballot measures pass in 7 states, fail in 3 others<\/h2>\n<div class=\"InlineImage-imageEmbed\" id=\"ArticleBody-InlineImage-108058241\" data-test=\"InlineImage\">\n<div class=\"InlineImage-wrapper\">\n<div>\n<p>Activists hold a rally in support of two Missouri ballot amendments including Amendment 3, a measure that would establish a constitutional right to abortion, at a UAW local in Kansas City, Missouri, U.S., October 12, 2024.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Evelyn Hockstein | Reuters<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"group\">\n<p>Abortion rights <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/2024-elections\/ballot-measures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ballot measures<\/a> passed in seven states and failed in three others, more than two years after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v.
