The Impact of Trump's Tariffs on the Stock Market

Introduction
The stock market is closely watching the developments of President Trump's tariffs, as investors weigh the potential impact on the economy. On Tuesday, the S&P 500 closed slightly lower after Trump announced that there would be no extensions on the new August 1st deadline for tariffs.
Current Situation
As the deadline approaches, investors are closely monitoring the situation to assess the potential consequences of the tariffs. Some are concerned that the tariffs could lead to higher prices for consumers and businesses, ultimately impacting the overall economy. Meanwhile, others believe that the tariffs will help protect American industries and jobs. With uncertainty in the air, the stock market remains cautious, with little change in the futures market.
