Trump’s Threat of EU Tariffs Sparks Market Concerns

President Trump’s abrupt announcement of potential 50% tariffs on EU goods has rattled financial markets, casting doubt on the fragile recovery in global equities. The move, set to take effect June 1 if no agreement is reached, marks a sharp departure from recent progress in trade talks with Britain and China.
Market participants fear renewed trade tensions could unravel the recent stabilization in risk assets. "This is classic TRUMP brinkmanship," said Bill Reinsch of CSIS, noting the tactic aims to force European concessions through economic intimidation. The development threatens to strain transatlantic relations while testing investor appetite for risk-sensitive assets.
