Wall Street opened sharply lower as President Trump’s threat to impose 50% tariffs on European goods rattled investors. The Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged over 480 points, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite dropped 1% and 1.2% respectively.

Market Optimism from recent U.S. trade deals with China and the UK quickly evaporated amid renewed trade war concerns. Global equities, already pressured by macroeconomic uncertainties, now face additional headwinds from escalating protectionist measures.

The tariff announcement triggered a broad risk-off sentiment that could spill over into cryptocurrency markets. Digital assets often correlate with traditional risk assets during periods of heightened market volatility.
