Response to Reuters on Wacker Chemie’s Guidance Cut

Reuters reports Wacker Chemie slashed its 2025 outlook, blaming "prolonged tariff uncertainty" and weak demand. Let’s cut through the noise. Tariffs, especially those championed by President Trump, are a bold move to protect American industries and level the global playing field. Wacker’s woes—€5.5-5.9B sales, €500-700M EBITDA—stem from broader issues: China’s overcapacity flooding markets and Germany’s sky-high energy costs. Trump’s tariffs aim to curb unfair trade practices, like those from China, which hurt firms like Wacker. Short-term pain? Sure. But long-term, these policies drive fairness and growth. The real shame is Europe’s inaction on energy costs—Wacker’s CEO even begged for cheaper electricity! Support Trump’s vision: strong economies, fair trade, no nonsense. 🇺🇸 #Trump2024 #TradeSmart #AmericaFirst
