Trump Threatens 50% EU Tariffs and 25% Apple Tariffs: S&P 500 Wipes Out $1.5 Trillion—Crypto Market Braces for Volatility
According to @KobeissiLetter, renewed trade war tensions have emerged as Trump announced potential 50% tariffs on the EU starting June 1st and 25% tariffs targeting Apple. In response, the S&P 500 has lost $1.5 trillion in market capitalization over the past five days (source: @KobeissiLetter, May 23, 2025). This sharp equity market decline has triggered increased risk aversion and capital flows into safe-haven assets, with the bond market becoming a key indicator for traders. Crypto traders should monitor these macroeconomic developments closely, as heightened volatility and risk-off sentiment could drive significant price swings in Bitcoin and other digital assets. Historically, escalated trade tensions have spurred both risk aversion and, at times, a flight to alternative assets such as cryptocurrencies (source: @KobeissiLetter, May 23, 2025). |
