The American stock market fell on Friday, affected by Trump's threats regarding higher tariffs for China, following the restrictions imposed by Beijing on rare metals.

The declines on the American stock exchanges were caused by President Donald Trump's warnings about possible higher trade tariffs for China, accusing Beijing of hostile restrictions on rare metal exports. Stock indices such as Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq recorded significant declines, especially in the shares of technology companies exposed to the Chinese market. Additionally, economic uncertainty is amplified by the U.S. government's budget impasse, with no progress in political negotiations.
