Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting

Tariff announcements typically raise input costs, disrupt supply chains, and create uncertainty, leading to near-term downside in equity indices. Historically, tariff news has caused sector rotations and selloffs around the initial announcements (e.g., 2018-2019 US-China tariff episodes) and can compress multiples until clarity arrives.
