It was a very mixed Thursday as Trump’s latest tariffs pressured markets while earnings helped and hindered some names. Trump slapped new 15% tariffs on traditional trading partners, including the EU, South Korea and Japan. Even Switzerland was recently hit with a 39% duty. Add to that the weekly U.S. jobless claims coming in at its highest level in a month. The Dow sank 0.51% and the S&P surrendered five points, though the Nasdaq rose 0.35% to 21,242, a record close. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
