Global stock markets saw a sharp decline today as investors remain concerned about the ongoing trade tensions between the United States and China. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell by 500 points, while the FTSE 100 in the United Kingdom dropped by 2%. The Euro Stoxx 50, which measures the performance of 50 large European companies, also experienced a significant decrease. This comes after the US announced it would be imposing additional tariffs on Chinese imports, prompting fears of an escalating trade war between the two economic giants. Investors are closely monitoring the situation, as any further escalation could have a significant impact on global markets.
