The market experienced chaos for a third day, with stocks, bonds, and commodities fluctuating wildly due to fears of a recession and speculation about Trump’s trade war.
The S&P 500 opened lower, briefly spiked on rumors of tariff delays, but then sank again as those hopes faded, with Trump threatening to escalate the fight with China.
Traders are looking for a policy response, such as a deal or a Fed move, to offset the toll of the trade war, with some expecting rate cuts this year and others predicting a possible recession.
Bloomberg’s Gina Martin Adams says “maybe this is just the beginning” for market volatility amid tariffs.
