US stocks experienced extreme volatility on Monday, plunging and surging due to uncertainty surrounding President Trump's tariffs. Global markets initially tumbled on tariff concerns, but rumors of a potential tariff pause briefly boosted US stocks before being dismissed as 'fake news'. The Dow fell over 840 points, reflecting investor anxiety. Despite some offers of negotiation from the EU, Trump threatened further tariffs on China, adding to market instability. The rapid market swings highlight investor desire for a halt to the trade war, with some analysts predicting a market bottom is near, while others see the turmoil as necessary pressure on the administration.
