  • Global stock markets plummeted further on Friday after China said it would strike back at U.S. President Donald Trump with additional tariffs of 34% on U.S. goods, escalating a trade war that has rattled investors and fed fears of a coming recession.

Stocks experienced a decline following China's retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods, escalating tensions in the ongoing trade war. The S&P 500 fell by 0.7%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped by 0.8%, and the Nasdaq Composite decreased by 1%. This reaction was triggered by China's announcement of new tariffs on $75 billion worth of U.S. products, in response to the U.S. imposing tariffs on $300 billion of Chinese goods. The market's downturn reflects investor concerns over the potential economic impact of heightened trade tensions between the world's two largest economies.
