If the ruling is invalid, importers could face a potential battle over refunds of up to $150 billion in tariffs already paid from the U.S. government. The core challenge lies in the uncertainty of the refund process: even if they win, businesses generally expect the Trump administration to delay or refuse refunds. While U.S. Customs has announced the implementation of an electronic refund system, the fully automated process remains unclear. To secure their rights in advance, several large importers, including Costco, have filed preventative lawsuits, while small and medium-sized enterprises are selling their refund rights to hedge funds on the secondary market at extremely low discounts (a few cents to one dollar). Experts advise that companies should immediately compile and verify detailed records of all tariffs paid and prepare to apply for refunds immediately after the ruling, in order to cope with potentially complex legal and administrative procedures that could last for years.Federal Reserve Governor Milan: I have no idea about my future at the Federal Reserve.

NZD/USD Price Analysis: Protects NZ Inflation-Induced Support Break; 0.6140 in Sight

During the mid-Asian session on Thursday, NZD/USD bears maintain control at the lowest levels in five weeks while defending New Zealand (NZ) losses caused by inflation near 0.6160. This justifies not only the weaker-than-anticipated New Zealand inflation, but also the recent break of one-month-old horizontal support, which is now immediate resistance, as well as the bearish MACD signals.

 

As measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) policy purists were unpleasantly surprised by New Zealand's (NZ) first-quarter (Q1) inflation. Despite this, the Quarter-over-Quarter change in the New Zealand Consumer Price Index (CPI) decreases from 1.7% and 1.4%, respectively, to 1.2%.

 

Following the publication of disappointing data, the NZD/USD pair breached a one-month-old horizontal support level, which is now acting as a barrier near 0.6170. The bearish MACD signals are now directing NZD/USD traders toward a horizontal support level that has been in place for 1.5 months and is located near 0.6140.

 

If the NZD/USD bears remain dominant above 0.6140, the 2023 low of 0.6085 cannot be ruled out.

 

The 200-day simple moving average hurdle of 0.6220 becomes crucial for NZD/USD investors to return.

 

If the NZD/USD pair remains above 0.6220, a run up to the previous weekly high around 0.6315 and then to the monthly high of 0.6386 cannot be ruled out.
