Since President Trump began his second term, the stock market has significantly declined, with the S&P 500 falling into correction territory. In contrast to his first presidency where he frequently highlighted stock market success as an indicator of economic health, the current downturn reflects investor unease, primarily stemming from unpredictable tariff policies. As the administration's mixed messaging on tariffs continues, there are growing fears about potential consumer hesitance and business investment, which could lead the economy toward recession amid looming immigration policies and government workforce changes.
The stock market's slide since Trump's second term began starkly contrasts with initial gains seen during his first presidency, signaling investor uncertainty.
This time, uncertainty surrounding Trump's tariff policies and their impact on the economy has left investors shaken, worried about consumer spending.
