Wall Street closes down, pares losses after Trump delays Mexico tariffs
(Reuters) -The major stock indexes closed lower on Monday, but partly recovered from initial steeper losses as U.S. President Donald Trump delayed tariffs on Mexico after his orders to levy tariffs on three countries sparked a global scramble to safe-haven assets earlier in the day. Trump said he has paused planned tariffs on Mexico for one month after the nation agreed to reinforce its northern border with 10,000 National Guard members to stem the flow of illegal drugs, particularly fentanyl. Over the weekend, Trump had announced hefty new tariffs of 25% on imports from Mexico and Canada, and 10% on China - which he said may cause short-term pain for Americans.
Crypto Crash Underway: Cardano, Polkado, and Avalanche Plunge More than 30%. Here's Why.
From 4 p.m. ET on Friday, Cardano (CRYPTO: ADA), Polkadot (CRYPTO: DOT), and Avalanche (CRYPTO: AVAX) are among the worst performing large-cap cryptocurrencies, losing 39.3%, 33.7%, and 33.1%, respectively, as of 3 p.m. ET Monday. As has been the case with most other risk assets, Trump's willingness to fulfill a key campaign pledge and install tariffs on Mexico, Canada, and China have certainly contributed to today's decline irrespective of a subsequent announcement that tariffs on Mexico will be paused after the country made some concessions. As uncertainty rises for investors, and other factors bleed into concern that capital will rotate away from risk and toward more defensive assets, these are three tokens that investors are clearly paying close attention to.
