Markets react to Trump's tariff musings like a cat hearing a vacuum cleaner: immediate, irrational, and slightly dramatic. SP500 dipped 0.28% in the first minute, settling at 0.25% down after 10 minutes, while the Dow followed suit with a 0.25% drop. Crypto wasn’t spared: BTC fell 0.48% instantly, and ETH took a 1.29% hit, proving even digital assets aren’t immune to old-school trade rhetoric. The STOXX50 mirrored the panic, down 0.25%, because Europe loves a good American drama. Historical context shows this post packed more punch than usual: similar tariff tweets averaged 0.15% SP500 drops, while this one doubled the chaos. ETH’s 1.29% plunge is its worst reaction since April, suggesting traders might finally be taking Trump’s China rants seriously—or just pretending to. The TRUMP token fell 1.11%, because irony is a cruel mistress. Nothing says "stable markets" like a 10-minute frenzy over a tweet that may or may not involve a typo about someone named Scott.
