markets Reuters DOW wellness 2020 reports US stock market predictions: S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow Jones investors can expect more volatility in Wall Street. Here's why

Nasdaq investors can expect another week of potential tariff turmoil as Wall Street witnessed the worst week since the onset of the coronavirus crisis five years ago, as per a report. More volatility could be in store ahead of the April 9 deadline Trump set for his reciprocal global tariffs to take effect, after his Wednesday announcement of the levies sent markets into a tailspin, raising fears of a global recession, Reuters reported. The benchmark S&P 500 lodged its biggest weekly drop since March 2020 and the Nasdaq Composite on Friday ended down more than 20 per cent from its December record high, confirming the tech heavy index is in a bear market. The Dow Jones Industrial Average finished the week down well over 10 per cent from its December record high, marking a correction for the blue-chip index, as per the report. Investors will look for signs the stock market may be close to at least a short-term bottom after Trump's tariffs rocked global asset prices this week, Reuters reported. One sign of gloom: The Cboe Volatility Index, an options-based measure of investor anxiety, registered its highest closing level since April 2020. Bearish sentiment in the American Association of Individual Investors survey reached 61.9 per cent, its highest reading since 2009 during the financial crisis.

COST Twitter Strategy Tesla Instagram social Videos Did Elon Musk just sell X to 'himself' to save Tesla? Viral parody video speculates a billion-dollar shell game

Elon Musk made headlines—again—by revealing that he had officially sold X (formerly Twitter) to his artificial intelligence company, xAI, in a deal valued at $45 billion. On paper, it sounded like an ambitious move to synergize AI development with social media infrastructure. But a viral satirical video on Instagram has turned the announcement into something else entirely: a puzzle that many now believe has less to do with tech vision and more with strategic financial maneuvering. The video, created by Instagram user @genericartdad, took a comical yet razor-sharp jab at Musk’s business shuffle. Using a back-and-forth dialogue format where he plays both interviewer and Musk, the creator humorously dismantled the deal by asking one simple question: Why would you sell Twitter to yourself?

UPS Manufacturing CEO Trade country India's toy industry ready to take advantage of high US tariffs on competitors like China, Vietnam

Indian toy industry is ready to take advantage of the high tariffs imposed by the US on competitors such as China and Vietnam, and the domestic players have already begun work on expanding capacity and forming joint ventures with global firms, exporters said on Sunday. They added that India has emerged as a winner in the recent US tariff hikes, as the exporters are better positioned to absorb the impact compared to competitor countries that are facing higher import duties in America. While the US has imposed an additional 26 per cent import duty on India, its competitor Vietnam is facing 46 per cent tariff, Bangladesh 37 per cent, China 54 per cent, Indonesia 32 per cent, and Thailand 36 per cent. «Huge opportunities are there for our exporters now. Vietnam's exports are about USD 6 billion and China's are USD 80 billion. Now their items will face higher duties in the US than that of Indian toys. All big toy firms are exploring opportunities to set up plants in India,» the CEO of Playgro Toys India, Manu Gupta, said. India's toy exports are hovering in the range of USD 326 million to USD 348 million for the last three years, according to the industry. He said that early conclusion of a bilateral trade agreement with the US will also help Indian toy players to increase shipments.

Punjab farmer leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal on Sunday ended his indefinite fast, which he had started on November 26 last year to press for various demands of agitating farmers including a legal guarantee on the minimum support price for crops. The announcement came a day after Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and Union Minister of State for Railways Ravneet Singh Bittu appealed to him to end his fast-unto-death. Dallewal announced that he was ending his indefinite fast at a 'Kisan Mahapanchayat' organised at Sirhind in Fatehgarh Sahib district of Punjab. «You (farmers) all have asked me to end the fast unto death. I am indebted to you for taking care of the agitation. I respect your sentiments. I accept your order,» said Dallewal while addressing the farmers' gathering. Dallewal is a senior leader of a joint forum of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (Non-Political) and the Kisan Mazdoor Morcha (KMM). He began his indefinite hunger strike on November 26 last year to press the Centre to accept the farmers' demands.
