Trump's tariffs send markets reeling, amid trade war and recession fears





President Donald Trump's new tariffs, announced on Wednesday, sent shockwaves through global markets as concerns grew that the aggressive duties could slow economic growth, impact corporate earnings, and fuel inflation.


One analyst described the move as the markets' "worst-case scenario." Since Trump took office, global markets have been jolted by his rhetoric, which raised fears of a potential global trade war. The introduction of these tariffs has made those fears more tangible.
