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%.

Despite a brief respite in the trade battle earlier this week, today's developments underscore the volatile nature of the market. Investors are now bracing for more turbulence as the trade war continues to unfold.
