Tariff Tantrum is an informal market phrase for a sudden burst of volatility caused by tariff announcements, threats, or retaliation. Stocks may fall, safe-haven assets may rise, and currencies may move as investors reconsider company costs and global trade. The expression became especially visible during periods when major tariff plans were announced with little warning. Unlike the 2013 Taper Tantrum, it does not refer to one central-bank policy event or have one official starting date. It is media and trading slang for the market’s emotional reaction to uncertainty about tariffs and their possible economic effects.
