  • US stock markets fell sharply Friday after an economic report showed American consumers are growing increasingly fearful of price increases and how President Donald Trump's tariffs could reignite the inflation crisis.

The market's optimism was further fueled by expectations of continued low interest rates and a potential stimulus package from the government.
