Home Depot to Raise Princes Because of Tariffs

Tuesday, August 19, 2025

Home Depot said Tuesday that some of its prices could be going up because of the cost of tariffs. Until now, America's largest home improvement retailer has limited what it has said about the impact of tariffs on its prices. But after reporting quarterly results Tuesday, CFO Richard McPhail said Home Depot would have to implement some price increases as a result of the Trump administration's taxes on imports.

Haha who was the idiot that claimed the tariffs weren't raising prices because Home Depot wasn't raising their prices?

Probably the same guy who declared we don't need the Weather Service anymore because we have the Weather Channel.

Yes. That actually happened.

... CFO Richard McPhail said Home Depot would have to implement some price increases as a result of the Trump administration's taxes on imports. ...

When a Bloomberg reporter talked with him, the reporter said he mentioned that, so far, Home Depot has been working mostly from pre-tariff inventory, but he expects that to change in the second half of the year.

Taco will simply tell his simps that prices are going down and the simps will eat it up.
