Amazon has come under criticism from the White House after reports emerged that the company considered displaying the costs of tariffs imposed by President Trump alongside product prices. This move was perceived as hostile and political by the White House, prompting President Trump to personally call Amazon founder Jeff Bezos to express his dissatisfaction. The reports suggested that Amazon’s low-cost shopping hub, Amazon Haul, had contemplated the idea, although Amazon has since denied that such a plan would be implemented on its main website. This development led to a temporary dip in Amazon’s share prices as the controversy unfolded.
