The Breakfast Briefing: US Stocks Set For A Negative Open After Trump Announces Tariffs

FYI: U.S. stocks were poised to keep sliding Friday, building on a selloff prompted by fears of a global trade war.

Those worries were sparked by President Donald Trump’s announcement that the U.S. will impose tariffs on steel and aluminum imports. Some of the U.S.’s biggest trading partners have already threatened to retaliate.
