The Trump tariffs on imports from Canada Mexico and China raise residential construction and remodeling costs by thousands per home. NAHB estimates add $7 500 to $10 000 per single family house while buyers face higher prices as builders pass along costs. Experts warn price hikes could slow demand amid a housing slump and shifting market conditions.

BYD unveils fast charging system for EVs
BYD Co. introduces a new battery and charging system claiming 292 miles of range in 5 minutes in tests on the Han L model. The breakthrough could let EVs charge as quickly as refueling a gasoline car and bolster BYD's push to top Tesla as the world’s leading EV maker. Analyst Lei Xing calls it elevating the game to another dimension. BYD shares closed little changed in Hong Kong, up about 45 percent year to date.
