Dow, NASDAQ, S&P 500 slide as White House ramps up pressure on China

This image is no longer relevant

US stock indices closed lower after the White House announced a new wave of tariffs on Chinese goods. The rate could rise to 104%, a direct hit on imports and a clear signal that trade tensions will continue to escalate. Investors read the move as a bearish signal for the global economy. The sell-off affected a broad range of sectors, particularly those sensitive to global supply chains.

Markets are reacting sharply, but these moves create opportunities for traders. Short-term trades on volatility, bouncing off key levels, and buying the dip are all valid strategies in the current climate. We offer favorable conditions for trading US stocks: low commissions and tight spreads make it possible to trade efficiently even in high-volatility sessions. Follow the link for details.

Tariffs hit indices: markets uneasy but not in panic mode

This image is no longer relevant

US financial markets closed in the red once again. New tariffs on Chinese imports officially went into effect, fueling uncertainty. The Dow Jones and the S&P 500 slipped as investors opted to reduce risk exposure. Trading volumes increased, signaling heightened activity amid a tense news backdrop. The trade war narrative is once again front and center.

This is not a reason for traders to exit the market. In fact, such sessions often produce compelling setups. Trading the news, using reversal patterns, working from key levels — all are in play. It is also crucial to monitor sectors that are less dependent on international trade. Follow the link for details.

Markets slide as recession fears mount amid escalating conflict

This image is no longer relevant

It is not just US markets that are falling. Global equities are also heading down. The driving force is growing friction between Washington and Beijing. New tariffs are sparking concerns that the trade conflict could spiral into a broader economic threat, with the fallout extending beyond individual companies. Investors are shifting out of riskier assets, adding to the pressure on indices.

This backdrop could serve as a launching pad for new trends. If the rhetoric softens, markets could see a rebound. If not, volatility is likely to remain elevated. For traders, this is prime time: the environment supports both short trades and opportunities to enter promising names at more favorable prices. The key lies in a clear plan and disciplined risk management. Follow the link for details.

S&P 500 dips: tariffs turn gains into 'fool's rally'

This image is no longer relevant

With the trade war between the US and China intensifying, the S&P 500 is showing notable weakness. The media has dubbed the previous bullish run a "fool's rally," suggesting that the gains were short-lived. While the US government hopes to bolster revenue through tariffs, market participants are concerned that this could lead to higher inflation and a slowdown in global trade.

It is critical for traders to recognize that in this environment, markets are hypersensitive to news. Any official statement has the potential to trigger sharp market moves. This opens the door to a range of entry points — whether for short-term trades or building longer-term positions. Accurate analysis and access to reliable trading tools can make all the difference.
