S&P 500 Plunges Over 3% as Markets Reel From Shock of Trump’s Tariffs
Wall Street opened sharply lower on Thursday, following...
Wall Street opened sharply lower on Thursday, following a slump in global markets, after President Trump announced a major round of tariffs on U.S. imports. The world’s biggest economies reacted swiftly to the new levies, which significantly escalated trade tensions with the United States, and some countries warned of retaliation.
For weeks, Mr. Trump said he would impose “reciprocal tariffs” on allies and adversaries. Still, the tariffs announced on Wednesday were far higher than experts had expected, likely driving up prices for American consumers and manufacturers.

Tesla vehicle sales fell 13% last quarter. The EV-maker said it delivered 336,681 vehicles in Q1, making it Tesla’s worst quarter since early 2022. The lackluster sales come amid global backlash against CEO Elon Musk becoming the face of DOGE’s government spending cuts in the US and backing right-wing political parties in Europe, which has sparked protests at Tesla showrooms. The company’s output also took a hit because it partially shut down some factories for upgrades during the quarter to prepare for a Model Y redesign. Plus, it continues to face fierce competition in the Chinese market. Tesla’s stock initially tumbled on the delivery news. Still, it climbed after Politico reported that Musk may soon be leaving his position at DOGE, freeing up more of his time to focus on his businesses.
