New Delhi:

Global stock markets plunged following US President Donald Trump’s announcement that tariffs on Mexico and Canada would be enforced as planned. Trump’s remarks on Monday raised concerns of a trade war in North America, leading to a sharp decline in financial markets. US stocks, Mexican peso, and Canadian dollar all saw drops in value.

Trump confirmed that 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico would take effect on Tuesday after the 30-day pause on duties expires. Additionally, he stated that tariffs on all Chinese imports would increase to 20% as a response to Beijing’s failure to stop fentanyl shipments to the US.

Trump emphasized the importance of building car plants and other facilities in the United States to avoid tariffs on imports. He dismissed the possibility of a deal to avert tariffs by curbing fentanyl flows into the US.

The tariffs are set to be implemented at 12:01 a.m. EST on Tuesday, with the US Customs and Border Protection agency beginning to collect 25% on Canadian and Mexican goods. Trump has long defended tariffs as a tool to correct trade imbalances and protect US manufacturing.

CEOs and economists warn that Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico, covering over $900 billion in annual US imports, could harm the North American economy.

Responses from Canada, Mexico, and China

Mexico and Canada are preparing responses to the tariffs, with Mexico’s President promising a plan B, C, D. Canadian officials stated their readiness to retaliate, while China is planning countermeasures targeting US agricultural and food products.

Market Reaction

US indexes dropped significantly post-Trump’s comments, with the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite all experiencing losses. Asian and Australian markets also saw declines. In India, Nifty is expected to open lower, with concerns over geopolitical tensions and escalating trade disputes.

Automaker shares fell, with GM and Ford experiencing drops. Experts warn of potential price hikes in the automobile sector due to disrupted supply chains and increased vehicle costs.

Trump’s Trade Strategy

Trump has initiated various tariff probes and reciprocal tariff plans to address trade imbalances and barriers. However, critics warn that these aggressive tariff measures could lead to higher inflation and global recession.
