Facing a collapse of the global market, President Donald Trump on Wednesday, April 9, abruptly retreated on his tariffs on most nations for 90 days, but increased his tax rate on Chinese imports to 125%. Apparently, it was an attempt to reduce what an unprecedented commercial war between the United States and the majority of the world between the United States and China had.
“Based on the lack of respect that China has demonstrated to the world markets, I am raising the rate charged to China by the United States of America to 125%, effective in an unmissable way,” Trump in Truth Social. Saying that more than 75 countries had requested negotiations on tariffs, Trump said “he authorized a 90 -day pause, and a reduced reciprocal rate with substation turns this period, or 10%, also immediately valid.”
Global markets increased in development, but the precise details of Trump’s plans to relieve tariffs on commercial partners that are not from China were not clear immediately. Shortly after Trump announced his last pivot on his Truth social platform, the S&P 500 increased 6.0% higher than 5.281.44, taking a brutal loss streak from the announcement of the Trump’s “Liberation Day” fee a week ago.
