US Markets Remain Under Pressure as Dollar Weakens Post-Liberation Day Announcement
As of April 17, 2025, US equities and the dollar continue their downward trajectory, reflecting sustained market volatility following the initial Liberation Day policy announcement. Analysts observe this extended bearish trend signals deeper structural concerns, with the DXY dollar index hitting multi-week lows while major indices struggle to regain lost ground. The prolonged sell-off suggests investors are reassessing risk exposure amid shifting macroeconomic conditions and potential policy implications from the recent announcement.
