US stocks fell on Friday as China struck back at President Trump’s latest tariff with a total 125% tax — further escalating trade tensions between the two nations.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 254 points, or 0.6%, after plummeting 1,014.79 the day before.
The index has been on a wild ride over the past week as markets struggle to absorb back-and-forth trade war news, plunging more than 4,000 points after Trump revealed his so-called “reciprocal” tariffs last Wednesday, then recovering more than 1,500 points this week after he announced a 90-day pause on most of his harsher tariffs.
The S&P 500 and Nasdaq dipped 0.5% and 0.2%, respectively, Friday morning.

Wholesale inflation fell “unexpectedly” in March. Markets back up over 200 points.
unexpectedly my butt lol
Panican as expected.
But why?
Watch Trump band all imports for China as his next move. Lol.
The CHICOM’s would freak out and cave
My bet is that Trump’s next move is to ban all imports from China. Lol.
DOW, S&P and NASDAQ are up. Article is crap.
Why is everyone panicking about tariffs?
It’s just more money and we all know there’s an infinite amount of cash at the Federal Reserve.
Tariffs were always going to cause stocks to dip so I’m not sure why people are surprised.
I think China is paying too much attention to what they see in the media. If you went by that you would believe the country is outraged 100% against what Trump is doing, which of course is wrong.
It couple of hundred in the red at the moment. Bouncing around.
Tariffs are paid INTO the Treasury.
The Wall Street Bungee Jumpers are panicking again!!!
TY
Paging Parker Schnabble!
China has US imports?
Yea, it’s about that time of year again up there.
