Probably even get a cost savings for such a large stock order. Somehow the cost for whatever they produce will still go up though. Record profits next year. Of course that will trickle down to the employees right? Right?

Manufacturing already buys in bulk and they would not be likely to get a further discount from a company that knows they are buying up to avoid tariffs. Plus they will need to store the materials, which will most likely incur warehouse fees.

They are also going to be ordering for things that they already have contracts for, so they are trying to avoid losing a bunch of money on materials increases.

Explaining tariffs is actually a decent sign that they are operating in good faith, at least as much as can be expected from a for profit business, and they aren't just swindling their employees. I mean if they post record profits after denying bonuses at a small manufacturing business they are likely to lose the vast majority of their workforce.

Except everyone's trying to order.
