The egg crisis of 2025 is not over yet \u2014 consider what happens if tariffs are put on egg imports?<\/p>\n

Figure 1:<\/strong> Price of dozen eggs, retail, $ (blue, left log scale), ERS forecast of February (light blue inverted triangle), ERS forecast of March (blue square), PPI for large eggs n.s.a.

The ERS forecasts are based on time series models without judgmental adds, so does not incorporate the potential impact of tariffs. TradingEconomics is a partly judgmental forecast.<\/p>\n

The elevated level of egg imports is part of a Trump administration plan<\/a> to lower egg prices. So\u2026imports help lower prices of eggs, but otherwise are not good for prices of consumer goods overall. Hmm.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
