Down 300 points so far, but give it time. The anti-China tariff means the end of big retailers like Amazon and Walmart. That will drag the market further down.

Trump is getting ready to back down and 10% tariffs are not enough to make factories relocate. 10% is just enough to annoy people and increase inflation.

Why is the market going up?

European Union officials have approved a fresh set of retaliatory tariffs on U.S. imports.

The duties, some of which would go into effect April 15, would range from 10% to 25% on more than $24 billion worth of goods, including tobacco, motorcycles, poultry, steel and aluminum.

Trump overestimates his popularity outside the US.

Many of these countries barely had any tariffs to begin with. Hopefully he will just point to their low tariffs, claim a "win," and call of this insanity.
