How Should Investors React to Tariff-Induced Stock Market Trouble?
Briefly

Recent stock market volatility has been driven by the implications of Trump's new tariffs and China's retaliatory measures. With China imposing a significant 34% tariff, uncertainty looms large regarding the direction of global trade relations. Investors are advised against panic, highlighting the relative stability of low-volatility international ETFs. The article emphasizes that while this period of tariff turbulence could be prolonged, experienced investors may find opportunities amid the chaos. Trump's refusal to compromise on tariffs complicates the outlook, as he navigates the implications for stock market performance.
With China recently slapping a 34% punitive tariff of its own, it seems like the stakes have been raised in a tit-for-tat trade war that could outdo the one endured under Trump's first term.
Though Trump has been known to be a tough negotiator, he has a tough decision on his hands as he ponders how much downside in the stock market... he'll be willing to bear before taking a step back on tariffs.
