S&P500 Forecast: SPX slumps as Trump trade tariffs fuel trade-war fears

US stocks are set to open lower after President Trump unveiled tariffs against key trading partners over the weekend, fueling fears of a full-on trade war. The tariffs will take effect on Tuesday and include 25% duties on Canada and Mexico and 10% on China. The measures could increase inflationary pressures, giving the Fed less room to cut rates.
