The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell to American stocks 3.6% in the afternoon, while it had declined by 5% by the afternoon today, to lose more than half of the gains it achieved yesterday, after the White House announced today the increase in fees on Chinese goods to 145%.

Customs

Wiga said that Trump focuses more on China, so raising customs duties on its products to more than 145% and that even if it is negotiated to reduce it to about 50%, and if only 10% fees remain on other countries, the damage that will be caused to the American economy may be sufficient to weaken the expected growth of the profits of the upcoming American companies.
It accelerated on Thursday after the White House explained that Chinese imports will undergo customs duties by 145%, not 125%that Trump talked about in his post on the “Truth Social” platform on Wednesday, after the inclusion of the previous 20%fentanel fees.

Trade war

“Everything is still very volatile because with Donald Trump does not know what you are waiting for … this is a great ambiguity in the market. The risk of recession is still standing,” said Francis, CEO of Geo Sikorite.
At the same time, China has begun to communicate with other countries to deepen its trade relations, in light of the escalation of the United States.
