金十数据8月2日讯，巴菲特旗下伯克希尔哈撒韦(BRK.A.N、BRK.B.N)表示，其消费品业务受到美国总 统特朗普贸易政策的冲击，因该政策提高了进口商品关税。这家企业集团旗下的消费品部门（包括Fruit of the Loom、Jazwares和Brooks Sports等品牌）第二季度营收同比下降5.1%至1.89亿美元，主要由于销 量下滑、关税影响及业务重组所致。伯克希尔称，关税政策导致订单交付出现延迟。不过该公司指出， 运动鞋品牌Brooks本季度营收逆势增长18.4%，得益于销量提升。由于伯克希尔业务横跨多个经济领 域，其经营状况被视为美国经济的缩影，因而备受投资者关注。在今年5月的伯克希尔年会上，巴菲特 曾力挺自由贸易，称关税不应成为"武器"，并强调"平衡的贸易对世界有益"。 特朗普关税重创巴菲特旗下伯克希尔消费品业务 ...
