White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said tariffs would draw a line between foreign and American products.

Wednesday is the first day of the 10% tariffs against Mexico, Canada, and China and the 25% tariff on foreign automobiles. Even though the tariffs have not gone into effect, the stock market has had bearish reactions as the S&P 500 recorded its fifth consecutive week of decline last Friday.
