Fun Fact:
Tariff Wars & Market Chaos: A Long History!
Did you know the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930—meant to protect US businesses—worsened the Great Depression by triggering global trade wars? Markets plunged 90%, proving tariffs and market moves go hand in hand!
The Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act was intended to protect American farmers and industries, but instead, it sparked worldwide retaliation. Countries slapped tariffs on US goods, crippling international trade. The Dow Jones plummeted from 381 to 41 over three years—one of the most severe collapses in history. Since then, markets have learned to fear tariff wars, making last weekend’s sell-off eerily familiar.
Happy trading,
Phil
