Tariff Turmoil: Wall Street Wobbles Amid Auto Industry Shake-Up

 

Wall Street faced a turbulent day as President Trump's announcement of 25% tariffs on imported cars sent ripples through the stock market. The S&P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average, and Nasdaq Composite all experienced declines, reflecting investor concerns over the potential economic impact of the tariffs.
