Trump’s Tariff Policies Shake Markets, Prompt Fed Intervention Signals

Persistent volatility in U.S. financial markets raises concerns over long-term economic stability as the Federal Reserve signals readiness to act.

President Trump's steep and unpredictable tariff policies have triggered extreme market volatility, with sharp fluctuations in equities, bond yields, and the dollar.
A temporary pause on tariffs led to a brief market rally, particularly in tech stocks, but failed to alleviate concerns about broader financial instability.
Investor confidence in U.S. assets, including Treasurys and the dollar, has eroded, with analysts warning of a potential long-term shift away from American markets.
The Federal Reserve has indicated its preparedness to intervene if financial disruptions escalate into a systemic crisis.
Economic experts warn that the ongoing uncertainty could damage the U.S. dollar's status as the world's primary reserve currency, with global repercussions.
