President Trump has announced that he would implement tariffs of 25 percent on all steel and aluminum imports to the U.S.

U.S. stocks are slipping Tuesday following President Donald Trump’s latest escalation against the United States’ trading partners with tariffs.

However, the stock market shifted into a higher gear in November after Donald Trump emerged as the victor on election night. While it's crystal clear that Wall Street loves President Trump, an inherited risk threatens to send the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite tumbling.
