Impact of tariffs on cost of goods

One year into these tariffs, Ana Swanson for the New York Times has the charts. On prices:

Unsurprisingly, tariffs pushed up the prices of imported goods last year. Economic tracking shows that prices began climbing particularly after Mr. Trump announced sweeping global tariffs in April, reversing a trend of falling prices in previous months.

The price effects from tariffs have, however, been somewhat smaller than many originally anticipated, partly because companies have been hesitant to raise prices for fear of losing customers.

That’s… good? I wonder how long businesses and investors will be able to tolerate decreased margins.
