Target had a record quarter and the stock is way up. they made 1.88 billion in profit, 994 million of that was tariff reimbursement from the federal government.

Reminder, Americans paid the tariffs not Target.

All of the record earnings driving the markets right now are the result of tariff refunds to companies that in most cases didn't pay them but passed the cost on to Americans.
