Markets explode upward / downward as Trump pauses tariffs—except on China. S&P up 9.5%, Nasdaq 12%. EU retaliates, Asia rebounds, and new trade talks begin.

Wall Street roared back to life as President Trump announced a surprise 90-day pause on tariffs, , excluding China. Investors reacted with euphoria:

  • 📈 S&P 500 jumped 9.5%
  • 📈 Nasdaq soared 12%, reclaiming recent losses

But it’s not all smooth sailing. Tariffs on Chinese imports were raised to 125%, sparking immediate backlash. Meanwhile, the EU retaliated with €21 billion in tariffs targeting U.S. tech, agriculture, and aerospace sectors.

🌏 Asian markets rebounded following the U.S. announcement, with Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan re-engaging in bilateral trade and energy diplomacy with Washington.
