The world’s most widely followed #StockMarket benchmark slid into a correction on Thurs, a drop that underscores how the 2-yr-long bull market [#Bidenomics] is running out of steam in the early days of the #Trump admin.
The move stems from investors’ growing pessimism about the whipsawing policy pronouncements from Trump over the past few weeks. On-again, off-again #tariffs & #MassLayoffs of #FederalWorkers have fomented unease on #WallStreet.
