Are US tariffs about to end the ‘add to cart’ era? President Donald Trump’s move to end the de minimis exemption closes a loophole used by Shein, Temu, and others to ship duty-free. With costs likely passed to shoppers, consumers are starting to rethink the real price of ultra-cheap clothing.

In today's MadTech Daily, we discuss Apple's new ‘Answers' team aimed at enhancing AI search capabilities, OpenAI's $8.3bn fundraising round, and Shein's €1m greenwashing fine in Italy.

El director del BCRA, Federico Furiase, afirmó: “Por definición, no puede estar arriba de la banda, porque en la banda superior el Banco Central puede vender todos los dólares y obviamente, tras la recapitalización del Banco Central, dada la cantidad de pesos, que es muy chiquita y después lo podemos analizar, y esto es importante que la gente lo entienda, hoy tenemos una cantidad de dinero que es irrisoriamente baja y el Banco Central está recapitalizado, tiene dólares más que suficientes para defenderlo eventualmente si llegara al techo, que no es nuestro escenario base de todas formas”. “Si subís precios por las dudas, cuando no hay convalidación monetaria, y encima tenés una apertura comercial inteligente donde el mercado es más competitivo, vas a quedar afuera del mercado”, agregó Furiase.El economista Martín Redrado aseguró: “No hay plata en el bolsillo de la gente para convalidar aumentos de salarios. Y esto lo que hemos visto es en las últimas listas que han ido y los supermercados las han rechazado. Las han rechazado porque no venden. El salario real viene cayendo, viene cayendo desde el año 2017, pero viene cayendo. Y uno lo ve también esto, yo todos los sábados por ejercicio, Franco, voy a dos cuadras, tengo acá un supermercado. y veo como la gente saca mucho la tarjeta de crédito, sobre todo después del 20 del mes, y esto lo que significa es que hasta el 20 se llega y después se vive con la tarjeta de crédito para comprar alimentos”.La ministra Patricia Bullrich sostuvo: “Que vos quieras romper las bases de un plan económico, que además es un plan específicamente del Ejecutivo. Los planes económicos no se hacen desde el Legislativo. Al Legislativo se le puede pedir una determinada herramienta, pero el Legislativo no puede decidir cómo usar el presupuesto nacional. Todo tiende a generar inestabilidad. Nosotros tenemos las bases bien sólidas, estamos tranquilos respecto a eso”.El vocero presidencial Manuel Adormi señaló: “Esto que le simplifica la vida a la gente, le baja los costos a la gente y le da más libertad a la gente, que es poder comprar donde se le cante y que le llegue, como pueden ser las plataformas de las que están hablando, Shein y no importa, tantas otras, es parte de la libertad de la gente para hacer lo que quieran. Entonces mentir sobre esto, la verdad que es preocupar o asustar o hacer que la gente no utilice las plataformas y son plataformas que por ahí consiguen cosas baratas y que les hacen bien a su vida diaria y la verdad que es bastante injusto, más allá de la fake news. Además es falso, no se están bloqueando ningún tipo ni de compras, ni reteniendo compras, ni devolviendo compras, ni ninguna de las pavadas que dijeron”.José Luis Espert afirmó: “La desesperación que tienen por ganar la provincia es tan grande que están dispuestos a cometer un fraude electoral con las testimoniales”.Noticias del lunes 4 de agosto por María O'Donnell y equipo de De Acá en Más por Urbana Play 104.3 FMSeguí a De Acá en Más en Instagram y XUrbana Play 104.3 FM.

In this special summer edition of the Remarkable Retail podcast, hosts Michael LeBlanc and Steve Dennis return to the mic for a jam-packed Month-in-Review episode. With interviews from the CommerceNext Growth Show rolling out all summer long, the duo takes a break from the regular cadence to reflect on the key developments dominating retail headlines.Kicking things off, Michael and Steve catch up on their summer travels, from retail safaris to personal DIY projects, before diving into on-the-ground observations from recent store visits. They note intensified promotional activity, flagging department store performance, and struggling retailers like Kohl's—whose housekeeping and inventory issues speak volumes about the deeper structural challenges facing legacy banners.A major theme is the ripple effect of evolving tariff policies. Steve breaks down the shifting landscape of trade "deals"—or lack thereof—impacting everything from apparel to automobiles, including the end of the de minimis clause that could reshape the business model of players like Shein and Temu. While retailers have largely absorbed tariff costs for now, Q4 pricing and profitability are big question marks, particularly for cash-strapped players.The conversation turns to macroeconomic conditions and a surprisingly resilient U.S. consumer. However, Steve warns against viewing “the consumer” as a monolith, emphasizing growing bifurcation between income brackets. The luxury market underscores this divide—Hermès continues to thrive, while Gucci and more aspirational brands struggle, and Saks Global faces mounting losses and vendor tensions.The episode also unpacks Amazon's latest earnings, with standout 23% growth in ad sales, despite investor jitters around AWS and an uncertain outlook.Other hot takes include AI's expanding role in customer interaction, the controversy around American Eagle's “gene/jeans” ad featuring Sydney Sweeney, and the headline-grabbing soap opera surrounding Hudson's Bay's failed resurrection attempt in Canada.Looking ahead, Michael and Steve preview August retail earnings, the fall retail conference season, and the ongoing evolution of AI-enabled search.  About UsSteve Dennis is a strategic advisor and keynote speaker focused on growth and innovation, who has also been named one of the world's top retail influencers. He is the bestselling authro of two books: Leaders Leap: Transforming Your Company at the Speed of Disruption and Remarkable Retail: How To Win & Keep Customers in the Age of Disruption.

Hablemos de las especulaciones que rodean a dos empresas en diferentes sectores, Nissan e Iberdrola, en una ya tenemos claridad y en la otra… no tanto. También tenemos el ejemplo de otra compañía con estragos por la desaceleración, cómo le fue al gobierno mexicano en el mercado con su instrumento creativo para ayudar a Pemex, y ya se vienen los aumentos de impuestos a las compras que provengan de plataformas como Shein y Temu. 

En entrevista con Ana Francisca Vega para MVS noticias, Luis Miguel González, de ‘El Economista’ explicó que, a partir del 15 de agosto, sube de 19% a 33.5% el impuesto a paquetes menores de 2 mil 500 dólares enviados por paquetería. ¿En riesgo las compras en línea desde China? A partir del 15 de agosto, varias empresas de paquetería en México, como Shein y Temu, enfrentarán un nuevo impuesto del 33% en sus operaciones.

Carol's back with another Retail Heat Map episode, connecting the dots between seemingly random retail headlines to reveal the bigger patterns reshaping retail. From Target's operational disasters and identity crisis to Netflix's ambitious physical retail gambit to Temu and Shein's spiral to Mexico's cross-border rescue mission, these aren't isolated stories – they're collision points where old retail strategies are meeting new market realities. Drawing from her recent media commentary and expert analysis, Carol reveals three major shifts happening right now: The identity crisis hitting some of retail's biggest players, massive shifts in consumer behavior that nobody saw coming, and a global market deal that is completely rewriting the rules (in a good way). While some retailers struggle with basic execution and strategic drift, others are making billion-dollar bets on cross-border innovation that could reshape North American commerce.Key takeaways:Vision beats operations every time – Target's apparel chaos and leadership drift prove that without clear vision operational fixes are futile Consumer behavior has fundamentally shifted – Amazon's "record" Prime Day still felt disappointing as consumers kicked into treasure-hunting mode.Mexican retail is hitting high notes – El Puerto de Liverpool's grande investment in Nordstrom validates Mexican retail's strength and shuts off Wall Street's glare.Resource-eating media might hamper merchandising hopes – Netflix's retail gamble has built-in advantages but Tik Tok and YouTube got to the good stuff first.The retailers winning right now recognize that collision isn't always destruction – sometimes it's the force that creates something completely new (and better). Want to be a guest on Spieckerman Speaks Retail?

Isha Marla is a 14-year-old with a love for science who recently finished her last year at Tumwater Middle School in the Beaverton School District. She is also just one of 10 students in the nation, and the only one from Oregon, who made it to the finalist round of a national science competition sponsored by Discovery Education and 3M, which manufactures a vast array of products, from Post-It Notes to stethoscopes.    The 3M Young Scientist Challenge is open to middle school students who for this year’s competition submitted a short video to describe their scientific solution to a real-world problem. Marla’s entry focuses on using a material she made from seaweed and other ingredients to produce an environmentally sustainable fabric for making clothes. Her proposal aims to counter the phenomenon of fast fashion associated with brands like Shein, H&M and Uniqlo that are popular with consumers eager to buy the latest fashion trends at low prices. But chasing those trends at bargain prices can take a heavy environmental toll, with nearly two-thirds of discarded clothes ending up in a landfill, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.    Marla joins us for more details about her entry and chance to win a cash prize and the title of “America’s Top Young Scientist” this fall.  

英國上議院和下議院一個聯合委員會發布報告，探討英國供應鏈中的強迫勞動情況。報告中提到了哪些可能涉及強迫勞動的消費品？報告中提到五個主要範疇：* 棉花： 全世界每五件衣服中，就有一件可能與新疆棉的強迫勞動有關 。中國快時尚公司 Shein 的代表在英國國會作證時，無法回答其在英國銷售的衣服是否使用了新疆棉 。* 海產： 不僅涉及新疆，還涉及北韓勞工。北韓為賺取外匯，將勞工送往中國（特別是東北三省）處理水產品 。例如，強迫勞工被送到山東省沿岸工廠處理魷魚 。這些魷魚的船員多為中國人和東南亞人，可能幾年都無法下船，甚至有生病死亡後屍體被丟入海中的情況 。中國是2023年英國第二大水產進口商 。* 加工番茄： 在英國各大超市（如 Asda, Tesco, Morrisons, Waitrose）購買的罐頭番茄和茄醬，即使標示義大利產，也可能來自新疆 。* 太陽能板： 中國是全球主要的太陽能板生產國之一，不可避免地存在強迫勞動問題 。* 關鍵礦產（Critical Minerals）： 例如來自剛果民主共和國的礦物，佔全球70%，用於鋰電池和磁石，與電動車和電池相關，這些礦產的開採和提煉也存在強迫勞動問題 。英國在應對強迫勞動產品進口方面有何不足？與歐盟或美國相比，英國目前沒有一個完整的立法來禁止所有強迫勞工產品的進口 。英國目前只針對能源方面有相關立法，未來會有一間英國國營電力公司禁止強迫勞工生產的產品進入英國電網 。為何難以避免這些涉及強迫勞動的產品？許多涉及強迫勞動的產品都是日常消費品或難以替代的原材料 。例如，加工番茄在烹飪中非常方便且難以替代。海產和棉花也因其勞動密集型特性而難以完全避免。此外，太陽能板和稀土等關鍵礦產的提煉過程非常污染，發達國家傾向將其集中在發展中國家進行，導致健康危害，更難以避免 。資訊透明度能否根本性改變供應鏈現狀？雖然資訊透明度越來越高，但要根本性改變供應鏈狀況仍有困難 。例如，沒有公司會承認使用北韓勞工或新疆維吾爾人生產的產品，因為這違反聯合國制裁 。他們會尋找方法更改標誌或阻撓審查 。只能透過本地立法並對違規行為施以重罰，就像處理洗錢案一樣 。對於強迫勞動問題，有哪些值得反思的觀點？當今社會仍有許多類似奴隸制度的操作存在；與其停留在討論過去的種族矛盾或歷史舊帳 ，更應該關注目前世界上正在發生的人權問題。 This is a public episode.

America: When Did We Stop Having Standards? | Karel Cast 25-101 Has America lost its standards? From disposable products and low-quality fashion to the normalization of rude online behavior and trash politicians, it seems like we're spiraling into mediocrity. Stephen Colbert fires back at Trump—was it warranted or crossing a line? Is the decline of decorum now the norm? And what about Mexico blaming U.S. expats for housing prices—who's really at fault? We dive into all this and more on today's episode of The Karel Cast.

On the Glossy Podcast, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi and international reporter Zofia Zwieglinska break down some of the biggest fashion news of the week. This week, we discuss the current state of Saks Global, including the appointment of a new CFO at a time when the company's finances are under increased scrutiny. We also talk about Richemont's better-than-expected earnings and what they indicate for the state of the luxury industry. And finally, we break down Inditex's decision to expand its ultra-low-priced fashion brand Lefties into new markets to compete more broadly with Shein. Later in the episode, we speak with Stephen and Erica Malbon, the co-founders of Malbon Golf. Malbon is known for its edgy, irreverent takes on traditional golf attire at a time when the sport is more popular than ever. Last year, one of Malbon's athletes, Jason Day, was asked to change his Malbon vest on the course because it was too distracting, a fortuitous moment for a brand that's intentionally trying to push the envelope of what golf attire can look like. Below are a few highlights from the conversation, lightly edited for clarity.

Asiatische Online-Plattformen wie Temu und Shein wachsen aktuell rasant. Und durch die US-Zölle könnten sogar noch mehr Sendungen nach Europa strömen. Für den Zoll wird die Paketflut aus China zum Problem. Von Lisa Splaneman

In diesem QuarterlyStützle spricht Karo wieder mit Vanessa Stützle, CEO der LUQOM-Group, über die aktuell spannendsten Entwicklungen im deutschen E-Commerce. Alle drei Monate ordnen die beiden gemeinsam Markttrends, Herausforderungen und Chancen ein, dieses Mal mit besonderem Fokus auf Marktstimmung, Profitabilität und geopolitische Verschiebungen. Vanessa gibt Einblick in die jüngste Geschäftsentwicklung von LUQOM. Trotz herausforderndem Umfeld verzeichnet das Unternehmen im letzten Jahr sowie in Q1 ein EBITDA-Wachstum von 50 Prozent – ein Zeichen für klare Strategien, effiziente Strukturen und starke Teams. Gemeinsam diskutieren Karo und Vanessa, warum sich gerade jetzt Nischenplayer gut behaupten können und wie Unternehmen den Spagat zwischen Preisdruck und Markenbindung meistern. Ein weiteres zentrales Thema sind die geplanten Zollerhöhungen der USA und deren Auswirkungen auf den globalen Handel. Während LUQOM nicht direkt betroffen ist, zeigt sich, wie stark asiatische Anbieter wie Temu, Shein und JD.com ihre Aktivitäten in Europa hochfahren, inklusive Logistikaufbau und aggressiver Werbestrategien. Was das für den Wettbewerb bedeutet und wie sich europäische Unternehmen positionieren können, analysieren die beiden offen und differenziert. Auch Beauty-News finden ihren Platz. Das Shein-Kosmetiklabel SheGlam wird offenbar bald in dm-Filialen gelistet, ein Schritt, der neue Fragen nach Verantwortung, Zielgruppenrelevanz und Sortimentsstrategie aufwirft. Vanessa bewertet die Neuigkeiten aus Handelsperspektive und sieht darin durchaus Chancen für alle Beteiligten. Ein gewohnt ehrlicher, strategischer und fundierter Blick auf den E-Commerce.

Send us a textEver wondered how champagne gets those magical bubbles? Or why bubble wrap is so satisfyingly poppable? Join the Noras for a fizzy, fun exploration of everything bubbly while we catch up after the holiday weekend!They start with Fourth of July stories - from neighborhood fireworks traditions to the simple joy of writing your name with sparklers. Then prepare yourself for the horror story that might forever change your online shopping habits as we reveal what one mother found inside a baby rattle ordered from Shein (hint: it involves fingernails and bugs!).Their discussion bubbles over with fascinating facts about everyday things you never knew you needed to know. Did you realize scientists recommend women drink 11.5 cups (92 ounces) of water daily? Or that bubble wrap was created entirely by accident when two inventors were trying to make textured wallpaper in 1957? They dive deep into the meticulous process behind champagne production, revealing why some bottles cost $6.99 and others command premium prices (it's all about that second fermentation!).With plenty of laughs along the way, Nora and Nora tackle everything from the proper technique for buttering toast (the internet is deeply divided) to their mutual horror at the concept of family nudist ranches. They even explore why we rarely venture outside our comfortable "bubbles" of familiar places.Whether you're sipping champagne or blowing soap bubbles this summer, this episode will leave you with a newfound appreciation for the effervescent wonders that bring joy to everyday life. Listen now and let the Noras add some sparkle to your day!Mike Haggerty Buick GMCRight on the corner, right on the price!

Leslie is joined by Scott Paul, President of the Alliance for American Manufacturing (AAM), a partnership established by some of America's leading manufacturers and the United Steelworkers union. The pair first discusses a new piece that Scott wrote for 'Industry Week' that finally puts to rest one of U.S. manufacturing naysayers' favorite lines: “Who wants to work in a factory anyway?” Next, they explore what progress has the Trump administration made on all of their attempted trade deals after the White House extended its reciprocal tariff pause to August 1st, with the hope of securing more deals. Third, Scott and Leslie explain why Americans should be pleased about a new 10-year end to 'the de minimis exemption,' a Customs loophole that Chinese e-commerce behemoths like Temu and DHGate had been exploiting. Fourth, Leslie asks Scott about an FTC letter sent on the same day Amazon launched its Prime Day sale this week, which called on the e-commerce giant (and Walmart) to put a stop to false “Made in USA” claims on its website. This comes after Amazon's marketplace has increasingly become a Wild West of products from third-party vendors as it seeks to emulate SHEIN and Temu.  Finally, both Leslie and Scott applauded Senator Elissa Slotkin for a recent speech she gave outlining her “Economic War Plan."  They also found this particular line from the speech very timely: "As a CIA officer and Pentagon official by training, I believe that the single, greatest security threat to the United States is *not* coming from abroad. It's the shrinking middle class here at home."

US equity futures are little changed. European markets pointed to a weaker open, while Asian equities finished mostly higher. The market focus remains on trade developments after President Trump began issuing tariff letters to countries without deals, including Japan and South Korea, which now face 25% base tariffs starting 1-Aug. The White House said more letters will follow, though emphasized flexibility on the deadline and openness to negotiate rates. Reuters reported the EU is likely exempt, signaling progress toward a deal. Trump also threatened an additional 10% tariff for countries pursuing "anti-American" BRICS-aligned policies.Companies Mentioned: Blackstone, SFR, Shein, Hess, Chevron, Exxon Mobil
