  • Aiming to boost the economy, U.S. President Donald Trump is firing off a salvo of policies and causing collateral damage within the country's own borders.

The article from CNBC Daily Open discusses the significant drop in U.S. stock markets, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling 391 points, or 1.4%, and the S&P 500 and Nasdaq also experiencing declines.
