How is Wall Street reacting to a tariff plan that Trump calls 'Liberation Day'?

WASHINGTON ― President Donald Trump's long-promised plan to shake up the economy arrives Wednesday as he prepares to unleash his most significant round of tariffs yet. He already has slapped duties on imports that have roiled markets and ignited a global trade war.

Two months into his White House return, Trump has imposed tariffs on goods from neighboring Canada and Mexico as well as China, all steel and aluminum imports, and foreign cars and auto parts. He's threatened several other countries including traditional allies in the European Union with other steep tariffs ‒ even on European wine.

Yet Trump has circled April 2 as the true culmination of his "American first" trade policy as he seeks to boost domestic manufacturing by making it more expensive for companies to ship products into the U.S.

That's when Trump is set to announce his reciprocal tariffs, which will apply to countries that are the largest contributors to the $1.2 trillion U.S. trade deficit. It will officially go into effect Thursday.
