Uncertainty surrounding President Trump’s tariffs is impacting global markets and investor sentiment. EU officials are grappling with a lack of clarity regarding the U.S.’s long-term trade objectives, stemming from the absence of specific targets for the recently imposed tariffs. This has fueled unease across the financial world as investors anticipate potential trade conflicts that could affect both the EU and the US. Analysts highlight that these uncertainties may lead to retaliatory tariffs by the EU, potentially disrupting the free flow of goods and impacting global economic stability. Past U.S. trade measures like the 2002 steel tariffs offer a stark reminder of how such uncertainty can trigger wider trade disputes.
