Market Turmoil: Stocks Plunge Amid Renewed Trade War Concerns

    

The U.S. stock market faced a sharp downturn today as escalating trade tensions between the United States and China rattled investor confidence. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell by approximately 1,000 points, marking a 2.5% decline. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 dropped 3.5%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite tumbled 4.3%.
