The Supply Chain Crash No One Sees (Yet)
The U.S. economy is speeding toward a supply chain crisis — and most people haven’t noticed.
Back on April 10th, trade from China to the U.S. largely shut down. Shipping times mean the real pain doesn’t hit immediately:
30 days to Los Angeles
45 days to Houston and Chicago
55 days to New York
That means the real economic fallout starts mid-May and intensifies through June.
Right now, everything looks normal. Store shelves are stocked. Retailers are still shipping goods. But that’s because companies frontloaded inventory earlier this year, fearing tariffs. Most big retailers carry 60–90 days of inventory. That cushion is about to vanish.
