The U.S. Supreme Court met Friday for its first public session after a four-week recess but issued no ruling on cases challenging Trump's use of the 1977 International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose 10-50% duties on imports from countries like China, the EU, Canada, and others. Lower courts had already blocked the tariffs, citing skepticism over stretching the post-Watergate law meant for sanctions into global trade policy. A potential loss could mean over $175 billion in refunds for duties collected since early 2025, per a Penn-Wharton analysis, while Trump warned of massive economic fallout including trillions in sunk factory costs. Markets stayed volatile as traders priced a 75% chance of the tariffs falling, with more opinions possible Tuesday or Wednesday.
