One of America's most storied industries is getting a massive boost from President Donald Trump's latest tariffs push — at the potential cost of a broader slowdown elsewhere in the U.S. economy.

The president has ratcheted up the rate on foreign metals to 50 percent, double the previous rate, saying the levies weren’t high enough to help the U.S. industry.

The executive order raises import taxes for US firms buying from other countries - but the levy remains at 25% for the UK.
