US STOCKS DIP AS TARIFFS TUMULT ROLLS ON
U.S. stocks closed out the trading week on a weaker note as investors gauged the tariff landscape after President Donald Trump continued to turn up the volume surrounding levies against trading partners.
Trump said late Thursday the U.S. would impose a 35% tariff on imports from Canada starting on August 1 and planned blanket tariffs of 15% or 20% on most other trading partners, the latest in a string of letters the President has sent to trading partners this week, such as Japan and South Korea.
The European Union was now girding for a possible letter from Trump outlining planned duties on the United States' largest trade and investment partner.
Financials .SPSY was the worst performing S&P 500 .SPX sector on the session, while energy .SPNY and consumer discretionary .SPLRCD were the only advancers.
For the week, the S&P 500 fell 0.31%, the Nasdaq .IXIC declined 0.08%, and the Dow .DJI fell 1.02%.
