President Donald Trump’s recent announcements have heightened market apprehensions. He proposed a 25% tariff on iPhones not manufactured in the U.S., causing Apple shares to decline nearly 4% in pre-market trading. Additionally, he recommended a 50% tariff on European Union goods, leading to a drop in European stocks and a weakening euro.

On the legislative front, the House narrowly passed a $3.8T tax and spending bill, which now awaits Senate approval. The bill includes a $4T debt ceiling increase, raising concerns about long-term U.S. debt sustainability.

As the markets approach the Memorial Day weekend, trading volumes may decrease, potentially leading to increased volatility.

In pre-market trading, S&P 500 futures fell 1.48%, Nasdaq futures fell 1.9% and Dow futures fell 1.31%.
