Interessante pensar nas ondas de choque de primeiro e segundo nível

Interessante pensar nas ondas de choque de primeiro e segundo nível que algo como "'Catastrophic,' 'Cataclysmic': Trump's Tariff Threat Has Retailers Sounding Alarm" pode desencadear:
"Even for healthy chains, like Walmart and Costco, the new duties threaten the business formula that helped speed their rapid rise over the last few decades: Import cheap products from Asia and sell them at rock-bottom prices. The National Retail Federation estimates that China supplies 42 percent of all apparel, 73 percent of household appliances and 88 percent of toys sold in the United States.
...
The impact will be greater on traditional retailers because they can’t adjust prices as quickly as online retailers, Mr. Cohen said. “This is going to cause more stores to close and more people to lose their jobs,” he added.
.
So far in 2019, American retailers have announced plans to shut more than 7,000 stores, after announcing nearly 6,000 closings last year, according to Coresight Research. Those numbers include liquidations of chains like Payless ShoeSource and Gymboree and store closings by healthier companies like Gap Inc. and Victoria’s Secret.
.
By the end of 2019, announced closings could climb to 12,000 stores, Coresight estimated."
Quem pode beneficiar? Como se pode beneficiar? O que tem de se fazer?
