The biggest falls have occurred in the last 48 hours, when Trump announced rates that have affected almost every economy in the world and encouraged a trade war
The Wall Street Stock Exchange has lost $ 9.6 billion (8.72 billion of euros) since the current president of the United States, Donald Trump in January, according to a calculation of the Marketwatch portal.
The biggest falls have occurred in the last 48 hours, when Trump has announced rates that have affected almost every economy in the world and encouraged a trade war and have since resulted in the loss of five billion dollars (4.54 billion euros), according to the same portal.
On Thursday, on the first day of negotiation after the announcement of the tariffs, Wall Street lived its worst day since March 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic began, and the main rates faced losses between 4% and 6%.
Unlike other occasions, when a day of major losses is followed by a day when investors take advantage of the lowest prices to buy stocks, today the day is being marked by securities reductions.
About 17 hours in Lisbon, Dow Jones, Nasdaq and S&P 500 had losses close to 4%.
Dow Jones ended up retreating 3.98% to 40,545.93 points, which compares with the maximum since the index was created in 1896 of 45,014.04 points on December 4, 2024.
NASDAQ, a high -tech quoted index, closed to fall 5.97% to 16,550.61 points, against the maximum of 20,173.89 points, verified on December 16, 2024.
