Trump will explain tariffs on electronics on Monday
The administration announced late Friday that some electronics were exempt.
President Donald Trump on Sunday said there will be no exceptions for tariffs on electronics and that he would clarify his administration's policy on Monday.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection announced late Friday that some smartphones, computers, chips and other electronics would be exempted from tariffs, but Trump's top economic advisers hit the Sunday talk shows to explain the policy, saying that tariffs against electronics would be coming in the next month or two.
“There was no Tariff ‘exemption’ announced on Friday," Trump posted Sunday afternoon, and that semiconductor tariffs will “just be moving to a different Tariff ‘bucket.’”

China to increase tariffs on US goods to 125%
China's Ministry of Finance announced Friday that Beijing will increase tariffs on all U.S. goods from 84% to 125%, in response to the U.S. "imposition of abnormally high tariffs on China."
The new rate will come into force on Saturday, the ministry's announcement said.
The White House this week said that the rate of tariffs on Chinese goods was now at 145%.
"Given that at the current tariff level, there is no market acceptance for U.S. goods exported to China, if the U.S. continues to impose tariffs on Chinese goods exported to the United States, China will ignore it," the Chinese Finance Ministry's statement said.
