Tech Giants Power Market Rally with Strongest Earnings Surge This Quarter
On April 2, 2025, President Donald Trump launched a dramatic recalibration of American trade policy, issuing Executive Order 14257, which levied a 10% baseline tariff on all imports into the United States, with targeted rates as high as 54% on specific nations, most notably China. Declaring the day as "Liberation Day," the administration framed this bold action as an economic emancipation from foreign trade dependencies. The announcement sent immediate shockwaves through global markets: the S&P 500 registered its steepest one-day drop since the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic, and bond markets reacted with heightened volatility. These events prompted fierce debate among economists, legal scholars, and political strategists.
