Trade policy from the second Trump administration, with a raft of new and often-changing tariffs on several countries, is challenging consumers and disrupting the retail industry.

Neuffer joins us on this episode of The Backroom to talk about how his team is approaching the coverage to ensure that it is both up-to-date and accurate, and what the trade picture looks like today.
