President Donald Trump He said that tariffs will probably be more “indulgent than reciprocal”, as the rate deadline of April 2 is assumed so that a series of encumbrances enter into force.

“I will probably be more indulgent than reciprocal, because if it were reciprocal, that would be very difficult for people,” Trump said Tuesday in an interview with Newsmax.

“I know there are some exceptions, and it is a continuous discussion, but not too many, not too many exceptions,” added the president.

Comments are concerned that investors are worried that a more severe approach indicated by the Trump administration cushions the feeling of consumers and corporate enough to stop the economy of the United States. On Tuesday, the Conference Board said that its measure for consumer expectations on businesses, income and labor fell to a minimum of 12 years.

The actions have recently had problems, with the S&P 500 falling 3% in the last month. The reference point also submerged in the territory of correction in the midst of tariff pressures, briefly quoting more than 10% below a record established in February.
