April 3, 2025, marked a significant decline in international stock markets due to escalating trade tensions between the U.S. and China that raise fears of a global recession. Wall Street faced its worst session in five years, with a cumulative drop of 10% over two days. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell warned of larger-than-anticipated economic impacts from tariff increases, which are likely to lead to higher inflation and slower growth. This has prompted investors to move towards safer assets, resulting in market turmoil across commodities, currencies, and debt.
With fears of a global recession due to US-China trade tensions, investors are fleeing to safer assets as markets face historic drops in value.
The panic on Wall Street follows a five-year low, reflecting deep concerns over the economic implications of new tariffs and Federal Reserve warnings.
