Trump’s ‘Optimism’ promising ‘economic boom’ after duties even as Wall Street sinks

Dow Jones loses almost 4%, Nasdaq plummets 6%. Trump: “7 trillion in investments will arrive” and JD Vance is happy “It could have been worse”

The reaction of the markets to the announcement of the new duties launched by Donald Trump on 2 April was heavy, but, according to Vice President JD Vance, “it could have been worse”. Wall Street experienced its worst day since 2020: Dow Jones -3.98%, S&P 500 -4.84%, Nasdaq -5.97%.

Despite this, Trump was confident: ‘The country will explode, we’ve never seen anything like it. Almost $7 trillion in investments will come in. The markets will boom’.

During the black day for the stock markets, the president relaunched his long-term vision: ‘We are reinvesting in the United States of America. The rest of the world wants to get a deal’.

JD Vance, interviewed by Newsmax, confirmed: ‘It was a bad day for the markets, but we have confidence in the direction President Trump has set.
