A federal appeals court has reinstated the most sweeping of President Donald Trump’s tariffs, a day after a trade court ruled Trump exceeded his authority in imposing the duties and ordered an immediate block on them.
An order from the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington provided no opinion or reasoning but directed the plaintiffs in the case to respond by 5 June and the administration by 9 June.

The US Court of International Trade had posed a risk of stopping or postponing the enforcement of President Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs aimed at the majority of US trade partners.

What was the trade court ruling?

On Wednesday, the trade court found Trump had overstepped his authority by imposing across-the-board duties on imports from nations that sell more to the US than they buy.
The court said the US constitution gives Congress exclusive authority to regulate commerce with other countries that is not overridden by the president’s emergency powers to safeguard the US economy.

The decision emerged from two lawsuits: one filed by the impartial Liberty Justice Center representing five small American businesses that import products from nations affected by the tariffs, and another by 13 US states.

Trump administration confident in tariffs

Senior Trump administration officials had said they were undeterred by the trade court’s ruling, saying they expected either to prevail on appeal or employ other presidential powers to ensure they go into effect.
The White House also said the ruling had not interfered with any negotiations with top trading partners that are scheduled in the days ahead.

A fourth round of talks with Japan is set for Friday in Washington, and a trade negotiating team from India is headed to the US next week for talks.

How have financial markets responded?

Financial markets, which have fluctuated wildly in response to every twist and turn in Trump’s chaotic trade war, reacted with cautious optimism to the trade court ruling, though gains in stocks were largely limited by expectations that the court’s ruling faced a potentially lengthy appeals process.
Analysts said broad uncertainty remained regarding the future of Trump’s tariffs, which have cost companies more than $34 billion in lost sales and higher costs, according to a Reuters analysis.
