Recent tariff threats by former President Donald Trump have significantly disrupted the dynamics of the U.S. stock market, turning traditional winners into losers. According to a report by The Wall Street Journal, companies across the U.S. are grappling with the reality of tariffs, questioning how they will manage the added costs. The New York Times highlights the broader implications of what is being described as “Trump’s tax on trade.” A government report cited by Reuters and The Associated Press suggests that ongoing tariff threats and economic uncertainty could weigh heavily on consumers, potentially dragging down the U.S. economy. In Los Angeles, KTLA reports on a phenomenon termed “doom spending,” driven by fears of an impending economic slowdown linked to these tariff concerns. — news from The Wall Street Journal
