In this special bonus episode of WSJ’s Take On the Week, we dive into the most pressing questions for investors about tariffs and markets following the news of President Trump’s 90-day pause on some of his largest import taxes.

They get into which sectors are most exposed to tariffs, how consumer-facing companies such as Restoration Hardware and car-parts sellers have been affected, the political calculus behind the tariffs, and what the repeated policy shifts mean for the dollar as the world’s reserve currency.
