Trader consensus on Polymarket favors a U.S. tariff rate on China of 5–15% by March 31 at 46.5%, driven by the short timeline post-inauguration—Trump assumes office January 20—with bureaucratic processes like USTR reviews limiting major hikes. Existing Section 301 tariffs average around 19%, supporting modest continuity or tweaks as the leading scenario, while 25–35% (28.5%) reflects potential moderate escalations via executive action. Recent developments include Trump's post-election tariff rhetoric targeting 60% long-term, pro-trade appointees like Howard Lutnick at Commerce, and ongoing Section 301 exclusions expiring soon, but procedural delays temper high-rate odds like 35%+ (7.0%), emphasizing uncertainty in trade policy rollout.

The general tariff rate refers to the base tariff rate paid on imports, including any general tariff the U.S. imposes on all imports (e.g. a 10% tariff on all U.S. imports and a 10% tariff on top of that on Chinese imports would equal a 20% tariff).
If the reported value falls exactly between two brackets, then this market will resolve to the higher range bracket.
Item specific exceptions or increases will not be considered (i.e. this market does not refer to the effective tariff rate).
Only tariffs which are in effect will qualify. Tariffs which are paused, or which have been announced but have not yet gone into effect will not be considered.
This market's primary resolution source will be official information from the Trump administration, however a consensus of credible information will also be used.
