U.S. stocks shed gains in early trading on Friday as investors sharply reacted to President Donald Trump’s fresh tariff threats against the European Union. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell more than 480 points, and the benchmark index S&P 500 shed 1% as stocks opened lower amid market reaction. Nasdaq Composite also edged lower, down 1.2%. Having pared gains in recent days, driven by macroeconomic and geopolitical concerns, global stocks looked set to end the week on a losing note as traders weighed the latest tariffs-related move from President Trump. Notably, this comes not long after the United States struck deals with the United Kingdom and China, agreements that sparked upbeat momentum across Wall Street. However, with U.S. deficit jitters rising, stocks are moving from muted returns to broader market worries. In terms of what Trump has said about the U.S.-EU trade talks, nothing is moving. Basically, with this stalling, he sees the next step as a 50% tariff on the EU. “The European Union, which was formed for the primary purpose of taking advantage of the United States on trade, has been very difficult to deal with. Our discussions with them are going nowhere!” Trump wrote on Truth Social . “Therefore, I am recommending a straight 50% Tariff on the European Union, starting on June 1, 2025. There is no Tariff if the product is built or manufactured in the United States.” While investor attention had shifted from tariffs to U.S. debt deficit and government policy, Trump’s recommendation of a 50% tariff on the EU swings sentiment back to this topic. The U.S. president’s warning that iPhone maker Apple also faces a 25% tariff on iPhones made elsewhere adds to the overall sense that markets may yet suffer pain. Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq are all set to end the week negative, while the Euro and Dollar have also dropped. Meanwhile, while gold was up 1.9% to $3,356, the benchmark cryptocurrency Bitcoin ( BTC ) hovered near $108k, down 2.6%. Bitcoin reached an all-time high above $111.8k this week.

Stock markets are down as Trump once again escalated rhetoric on trade, threatening both Apple and the EU if they don’t comply. The U.S. trade tensions with the rest of the world are once again escalating, causing the markets to sink. On Friday, May 23, the Dow Jones was trading at 41,624 points, down 234 points or 0.56%. The S&P 500 was at 5,802 points, down 0.69%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq was at 18,742.20, losing 0.97%. The market downturn came after Donald Trump once again escalated his rhetoric on tariffs. The U.S. President threatened Apple with increased tariffs if the company did not pledge to make its iPhones in the U.S. “I have long ago informed Tim Cook of Apple that I expect their iPhones that will be sold in the United States of America will be manufactured and built in the United States, not India, or anyplace else. If that is not the case, a Tariff of at least 25% must be paid by Apple to the U.S,” Trump wrote . Manufacturing iPhones in the U.S. would substantially increase their costs to consumers. According to Bloomberg, manufacturing costs could go up a much as 90% , making a shift to the U.S. manufacturing unlikely even if tariffs took effect. For this reason, Apple stock fell 2.6% following Trump’s statement. Moments later, Trump also expressed frustration with trade talks with the European Union. He stated that talks are “going nowhere,” and threatened a 50% tariff on all EU goods coming to the U.S. starting on June 1. The escalating trade war is causing concern on Wall Street. Combined with likely retaliatory measures by other countries, U.S. tariffs threaten to unravel the interconnected global economy. Many major U.S. businesses, including Apple and Tesla, rely on foreign markets for a significant share of their revenue.

U.S. stocks opened sharply lower, with Apple falling 3% The three major U.S. stock indexes opened lower, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average down 1.1%, the S&P 500 down 1.2%, and the Nasdaq down 1.5%. Technology stocks fell across the board, with Apple (AAPL.O) down 3.3% as Trump threatened to impose tariffs on Apple. Nvidia (NVDA.O) fell 2.2%, Amazon (AMZN.O) fell 2.2%, and Tesla (TSLA.O) fell 1.4%. Ross Stores fell more than 8% as the company withdrew its annual guidance. (Jinshi)

Treasury yields held near uncomfortable highs on Friday as financial markets reacted to President Donald Trump’s new tax legislation and what it might do to America’s growing deficit. Investors pulled back, unsure whether US government bonds were still worth trusting. That skepticism spread fast after the House approved Trump’s tax bill on Thursday, a proposal that could add almost $4 trillion to the national debt. The Senate hasn’t voted yet, but traders didn’t wait to panic. At 4:56 a.m. ET, the 30-year Treasury yield dropped a little over 3 basis points, settling at 5.025%. The 10-year also moved down 3 basis points to 4.518%, while the 2-year nudged lower by 2 basis points to 3.986%. Traders understand those changes are minor. The deeper concern is why the yields are still stuck at these levels—and whether the US can be trusted to manage its debt. The whole thing got worse after Moody’s downgraded the US credit rating by one level last Friday. They blamed it on the exploding budget deficit and rising costs of borrowing. That rating now sits one step below the top tier. Moody’s didn’t say a default is coming—but they didn’t rule out financial pain, either. Thierry Wizman, who leads global rates and currencies at Macquarie, explained the math. “Even if the inability to reduce the deficit in the US doesn’t lead to default, a large deficit still implies greater bond supply, and perhaps eventual inflation as the debt is monetized to avoid default,” Wizman said . “Either way, it makes nominal fixed-income instruments less attractive as long-term investments.” So yeah, not many folks want to sit on Treasury bonds for the next 10 years right now. Meanwhile, a legal decision on Thursday gave the Federal Reserve some breathing room. The Supreme Court suggested that the central bank’s board members—including Chair Jerome Powell—can’t be casually removed by Trump. That helped cool off fears that Trump would fire Powell for not cutting rates fast enough. Investors were also waiting for more economic data—specifically, reports on new home sales and building permits were expected later Friday. Rising Treasury yields could make those numbers worse if mortgage rates continue to climb. But until those reports landed, markets stayed frozen. Over on Wall Street, the mood wasn’t any better. Early Friday, Dow Jones futures slipped 15 points, or 0.04%, with the Nasdaq 100 down 0.09%. The S&P 500 barely moved. The slow action came after a rough few days. By Thursday’s close, the S&P 500 had already dropped 2% for the week. The Dow was down 1.9%, and the Nasdaq was tracking a 1.5% weekly loss. Every one of those moves can be traced back to the Treasury market. If Trump’s tax plan becomes law, and it adds trillions to federal debt, bond investors will demand higher yields to cover the risk. That means more expensive debt for everyone else—from homeowners to corporations. And that’s exactly what traders are worried about.
