Will the New Tariffs Tank the Economy?

The stock market just had its worst day since 2020, and Trump’s proposed “Liberation Day” tariffs are at the center of the storm.

Together, they dig into the real-world impact on inflation, jobs, trade relationships, and the markets. Is this the beginning of a new era of economic strength, or a fast track to recession?
