Donald Trump Rampage: India, Global Markets Crash Massively!

There is no denying the fact that the United States plays a significant role in deciding the trending of the global markets. When something unto word and extreme happens in the United States, the repercussions are felt in the other global market as well.

The same happened yesterday, as the global markets witnessed an absolute bloodbath with every single major market, witnessing a plunge in valuation and capitalisation. Even India took a massive hit as investors reportedly, lost, 19 lakh crore rupees in a single day yesterday.

The global market crash on April 7, 2025, was triggered by the U.S. imposing sweeping tariffs on imports, including a 20% duty on goods from the EU, sparking fears of a global trade war. China quickly retaliated with a 34% tariff on U.S. products, escalating tensions. As a result, markets plummeted. The S&P 500 dropped 14% in three days, and the Nasdaq fell over 15%, entering bear market territory.

Uncertainty worsened as U.S. officials gave conflicting signals on future negotiations. Global investor confidence eroded, and economists began warning of a potential recession.

Notably, India’s Sensex also crashed, losing over 2,200 points. Rising tariffs, inflation fears, and disrupted trade flows have shaken global economic stability and market outlooks. The aqua industry in Andhra Pradesh also took a substantial beating due to the import tariffs imposed by the Trump government.
