How major US stock indexes fared Thursday, 4/10/2025

U.S. stocks surrendered a chunk of their historic gains from the day before as President Donald Trump’s trade war continues to threaten the economy.

The S&P 500 fell 3.5% Thursday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 2.5%, and the Nasdaq composite sank 4.3%.

China announced more countermeasures against the United States, and losses for stocks accelerated after the White House clarified that it will tax Chinese imports at 145%, not the 125% rate Trump had earlier written about. The swings also hit the bond market despite a better-than-expected report on inflation. U.S. crude oil prices fell more than 3%.
