<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Auto Buyers Rush to Beat the Clock</h2>
<p>A Toyota (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) dealership in Walnut Creek, California told <a href="https://abc7news.com/post/trump-car-tariffs-bay-area-presidents-liberation-day-announcement/16113072/">KKGO-TV</a> selling 70 cars over the weekend, as customers hurried to make a purchase before the tariffs kicked in. The dealership&#8217;s general manager, <strong>Irina Ellis</strong>, said, &#8220;Now is the time for these consumers to be out here looking for vehicles before any price changes take effect.&#8221;&nbsp;</p>
<p>According to<a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/new-car-prices-could-be-15-000-higher-under-trumps-tariffs-and-no-one-wins-wall-street-analyst-says-522addcb?"> Marketwatch</a>, Wedbush Securities analyst <strong>Dan Ives </strong>estimates new car prices could rise by $5,000 and $15,000. However, the exact amount would depend on the model and brand.</p>
<p>Fears of significant price hikes fuel the urgency. Like many auto industry experts, Ives expects prices on some models to surge. Ives told<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFvx327UxDc"> Bloomberg</a> while referencing the tariffs, &#8220;It would be a back breaker for the auto industry globally.&#8221;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Trending: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $250 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks"><strong>this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</strong></a></strong></p>
<p>According to <a href="https://mediaroom.kbb.com/2024-08-13-New-Vehicle-Sales-Incentives-Climb-Higher-in-July,-According-to-Kelley-Blue-Book-Estimates">Kelley Blue Book,</a> the average transaction price of a new vehicle in July was $48,401. <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/goldman-cuts-us-auto-sales-estimate-by-nearly-1-million-units-due-tariffs-2025-04-10/">Reuters</a> reports that auto tariffs would increase car prices by an estimated $2,000 to $4,000 over the next 6 to 12 months, as automakers pass on higher import and production costs to consumers.</p>
<p>Used car prices aren&#8217;t safe either—dealers predict they&#8217;ll rise as new car inventories shrink. CarEdge co-founder <strong>Ray Shefska <a href="https://caredge.com/guides/car-price-predictions-for-2025?">predicts </a></strong>that tariffs will impact the used car market if they continue for an extended period. If they drive new car prices higher, more buyers will pivot to the used car market. Higher demand for used cars would naturally drive prices higher.</p>
<p>Beyond sticker shock, automakers are bracing for higher production costs, which could impact jobs and supply chains. The manufacturing hubs of Michigan, Ontario and Mexico may see layoffs as companies adjust to the new economic reality.</p>

<p>These tariffs are part of a larger strategy by the Trump administration to implement reciprocal trade policies, particularly targeting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44535998/grant-cardone-says-trump-wants-to-make-canada-the-51st-state-experts-break-down-the-tariffs-impacting-over-100-billion-in-trade">Canada</a> and Mexico. Supporters argue it will boost federal revenue and encourage domestic production, while critics warn it could trigger retaliatory tariffs and slow economic growth.</p>
<p>For those debating whether to buy a car now or wait, market analysts say time is of the essence. <strong>Tyson Jominy, </strong>vice president of analytics at J.D.

'Liberation Day' Tariffs? Why Some Americans Are Rushing To Buy A Car Before Trump's 25% Auto Duty Hits

<p>A surge of TikTok influencers are targeting American consumers with videos that claim to reveal the Chinese factories behind major brands like <strong>Nike, Inc.</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) and <strong>Lululemon Athletica, Inc.</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LULU#NASDAQ">LULU</a>).</p>
<p>The influencers claim that viewers can bypass President <strong>Donald Trump</strong>'s tariffs by purchasing the same products directly from Chinese manufacturers at a fraction of<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44640220/peter-schiff-says-nike-wont-build-factories-in-us-they-will-sell-to-countries-like-china-a-much-better-strategy-amid-trump-tariffs"> U.S. retail prices.</a> </p>
<p><strong>What To Know: </strong>The influencers typically film themselves inside or near Chinese factories and assert that the facility produces goods for Nike, Lululemon and other well-known brands. Some openly criticize U.S. tariffs and trade policies and the messaging often emphasizes the idea that consumers can &#8220;bypass the middleman&#8221; and get the same products for significantly lower prices directly from the factory.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While the influencers promote direct factory sales as a way to avoid tariffs, the U.S. is<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/retail-sales/25/04/44714336/temu-shein-brace-for-impact-as-trumps-tariff-torpedo-blows-up-the-800-loophole"> set to eliminate</a> duty exemptions for small packages sent to U.S. addresses starting May 2, making it less clear whether consumers will actually save money.&nbsp;</p>
<p>For example, TikTok user @LunaSourcingChina <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@lunasourcingchina/video/7470351509918649643">claims</a> Lululemon leggings are made for $5 to $6 per pair, compared to over $100 retail in the U.S., saying the quality is &#8220;virtually identical.&#8221;</p>
<p>Other videos titled &#8220;China Exposed the Truth&#8221; and &#8220;How We Bypass Tariffs&#8221; have gone viral, with millions of views and hundreds of thousands of likes. The sheer number of videos showcasing the anti-tariff content highlights concerns over TikTok-owner <strong>ByteDance</strong>'s ability to reach and influence a broad U.S. audience. </p>
<p>"These posts are much more confrontational and mocking of the US, rather than showing it as a threat," <strong>Tom Harper</strong>, lecturer in Chinese international relations at the University of East London,<a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-14/china-suppliers-mock-tariffs-with-nike-lululemon-tiktok-deals?embedded-checkout=true"> told </a>Bloomberg.&nbsp;</p>

<h3>About Agnico Eagle Mines</h3>
<p>Agnico Eagle is a gold miner with mines in Canada, Mexico, Finland, and Australia. Agnico operated just one mine, LaRonde, as recently as 2008 before bringing its other mines online in rapid succession in the following years. It merged with Kirkland Lake Gold in 2022, acquiring the Detour Lake and Macassa mines in Canada along with the high-grade, low-cost Fosterville mine in Australia.

Agnico Eagle Mines's Options Frenzy: What You Need to Know

<p><strong>USA Rare Earth Inc</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USAR#NASDAQ">USAR</a>) shares are seeing continued momentum Tuesday after metals and mining companies surged on Monday following reports the Trump administration plans to stockpile deep-sea metals&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44650952/china-restricts-rare-earth-exports-to-us-as-part-of-tariff-retaliation" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">to counter China</a>.</p>
<p><strong>What To Know:</strong> President <strong>Donald Trump</strong> is in the process of drafting an executive order that would allow for the stockpiling of critical metals found in the Pacific Ocean, according to a Financial Times&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ft.com/content/2205fc9a-67b5-4112-9b7f-cd89d011f5bb" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">report</a>&nbsp;released over the weekend. </p>
<p>The move is focused on countering China's rare earth supply chains and battery mineral dominance as the U.S. aims to become self-sufficient when it comes to critical minerals supply, people familiar with the matter reportedly said. </p>
<p><strong>Alexander Gray</strong>,&nbsp;who was the chief of staff to the U.S. national security adviser in Trump's first term, told FT that China views the ocean floors as a "front line" for economic competition with the U.S.</p>
<p>The move comes as China has halted exports of several rare earth minerals and magnets in response to reciprocal tariffs from the Trump administration. China produces around 90% of the world&#8217;s refined rare earths, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.</p>

<p>USA Rare Earth is currently focused on building &#8220;one of the largest&#8221; rare earth magnet manufacturing facilities in the U.S. in an effort to become a leading supplier of high-value rare earth magnets and critical minerals, according to the company&#8217;s website. </p>
<p>USA Rare Earth went public via a merger with special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) Inflection Point Acquisition Corp. II last month. &nbsp;</p>
<p>&#8220;The recent news on tariffs and rising global geopolitical tensions are a wake-up call for America – we must build a domestic rare earth mineral and magnet supply chain here at home to support a wide range of critical technologies, including our national defense,&#8221;&nbsp;CEO<strong> Joshua Ballard</strong> said last month. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s worth noting that USA Rare Earth stock has been popular among retail investors in recent weeks. The pre-revenue company is seeing increased mentions across social platforms like X and Reddit and was among the top trending tickers on Stocktwits at last check. </p>
<p><strong>USAR Price Action:</strong> <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/USAR">USA Rare Earth shares</a> were up 22.1% at $14.35 at the time of publication Tuesday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.</p>
