The US is losing $4 trillion due to Trump's policies

Economy

Donald Trump's policy of introducing new tariffs has had serious consequences for the US stock market. In a month, the S&P 500 index lost more than $4 trillion in value, the Nasdaq fell by 10%, and companies like Tesla are losing billions in a single day.

The US is losing $4 trillion due to Trump's policies
The US stock market is falling rapidly. Over the past month, the S&P 500 index (an index whose basket includes 500 selected companies with the highest capitalization) lost more than $4 trillion, and Nasdaq officially entered the correction zone, falling 10% from its December peak.

The decline accelerated after President Donald Trump increased trade pressure on key partners - Canada, Mexico, and China. This has caused uncertainty among investors and companies who are now unsure of the future of the economy.

On Monday, the markets experienced the biggest collapse in a year: the S&P 500 fell 2.7%, Nasdaq - by 4%. Tech giants suffered the most: Tesla shares plummeted by 15%, the company lost $125 billion in a single day. Apple and Nvidia fell by 5%.

Experts warn that this could only be the beginning. If tariff wars continue, the market may fall even further. Deutsche Bank analysts believe that at worst, the S&P 500 index could lose another 5.5%.

The main question remains the Trump administration's stance: is the White House ready to ease its economic policy or is the market collapse just the beginning of a larger crisis?
