White House: Earlier reports are wrong, tariffs are coming February 1

United States (US) Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt dashed investor hopes for a delay in tariffs on Friday, announcing from the White House's press podium that President Donald Trump's wide tariffs of 25% on Canada and Mexico, as well as 10% on China, would be taking effect on February 1.
