Trump says he will ’remember’ companies that don’t seek tariff refunds

President Trump warned he will “remember” companies that do not apply for refunds from tariffs his administration imposed and that the Supreme Court struck down, comments that add political risk to corporate decision‑making and market sentiment. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s CAPE portal began accepting refund applications for up to $166 billion, but a temporary stay and a judge’s order for a progress report by April 28 cloud near‑term processing. Payments aren’t expected until 60–90 days after acceptance and the administration has until June 7 to appeal the refund ruling. Some large firms (Costco, FedEx, Mondelez) have sued to speed refunds; others (Apple, Amazon, Walmart) have not, a decision Trump praised. Markets may react to heightened policy uncertainty, potential new Section 301 tariffs expected by July, and politicized pressures on corporate behaviour.
