US stocks dropped on Monday, May 5, after President Trump threatened new tariffs to bring back concerns about a trade war. This ended a historic run of gains for the stock market.

The US dollar also lost value as Wall Street started questioning whether recent confidence about a possible trade deal with China was misplaced. Previously, investors were optimistic because of indications that the US and China might start talks about tariffs. Chinese officials had shown interest in reopening trade talks with Washington. However, no talks are set to begin anytime soon.

Over the weekend, President Trump said that he has no plans to speak with China’s President Xi this week, even though he said he wants a “fair deal” with China. On Sunday, Trump took to social media and announced a new 100% tariff on movies produced outside the US. According to the President of the US, efforts to start the process would start right away, though he did not give many details about how it would work.

Looking ahead, Wall Street has shifted its focus to the Federal Reserve’s two-day policy meeting, which will start on Tuesday. It is expected that the Fed will keep interest rates the same for now, even though in recent weeks, President Trump has put pressure on its chair, Jerome Powell.

New tariff threats by President Trump and risks of a trade war with China are causing uncertainty in the market.
