The S&P 500 fell Tuesday as markets reacted to weak economic data and Trump’s tariff comments, raising U.S. economic concerns. Markets declined with S&P 500 down 0.7% to 6,299, Nasdaq 100 dropping 1.1% to 22,988, and Dow Jones losing 0.2% to 44,111.
Tuesday’s decline followed July’s flat ISM Services index, intensifying stagflation worries amid recent weak employment figures. With services representing 70% of the U.S. economy, this slowdown signals potential trouble. Trump’s announcement of upcoming semiconductor and pharmaceutical tariffs further pressured stocks.
