Prices on Chinese-made goods selling on Amazon have reportedly been increasing faster than overall inflation.
An analysis of 1,400 products by analytics firm DataWeave found that the median price of Chinese products on Amazon rose 2.6% between January and mid-June, exceeding the U.S. inflation rate.
Products like school and office supplies, electronics, and home furnishings exhibited the fastest price increases, potentially due to U.S. tariffs filtering through to consumers.
The impact of tariffs on consumers is evident, with reports showing increasing costs of goods affecting American households, particularly those with tighter budgets.
