Concrete fact Geopolitics and conflict
Uncertainty around U.S. tariff authority creates volatility

In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act were not authorized, creating uncertainty around the status of prior tariffs, potential refund processes and the scope of future presidential tariff authority. This ruling adds volatility to an already fluid tariff environment and may result in rapid changes in tariff rates, shifts in enforcement, delays in customs processing and increased uncertainty in supply chain and capital planning for us and our customers.
