Economic Impact:

Economists warn that these tariffs could slow the global economy, raise the risk of recession, and increase living costs for the average American family by thousands of dollars. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) forecasts that these measures will reduce economic growth in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, while increasing inflation.

Market Reactions:

Following the announcement, global financial markets experienced significant volatility. U.S. stock futures fell over 3%, Treasury yields reached six-month lows, and oil prices slumped nearly 3% due to concerns over decreased demand.

International Responses:

The European Union and China have expressed strong opposition to the tariffs, with EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stating that the move is a "major blow to the world economy" and will trigger further protectionism. China has indicated that these tariffs constitute an "all-round blockade," significantly impacting its exporters and potentially leading to a 30% drop in exports to the U.S.

As the situation develops, further retaliatory measures from affected countries are anticipated, potentially escalating global trade tensions.
