Wall Street’s main indexes fell more than 2 per cent on Monday after Beijing announced plans to retaliate with higher tariffs on U.S. goods, raising fears that another round of tit-for-tat measures could push the U.S. economy toward recession.
China’s finance ministry said on Monday it planned to impose tariffs ranging from 5 per cent to 25 per cent on 5,140 U.S. products on a target list worth about US$60 billion from June 1, striking back after U.S. raised duties last week. The S&P 500 on Friday racked up its worst weekly decline since December, as Washington raised tariffs on Chinese goods worth US$200 billion to 25 per cent from 10 per cent.
U.S. equities hit record highs just two weeks ago on hopes of a trade deal and a positive first-quarter earnings season. The S&P 500 was trading 4.4 per cent below its all-time high close. At 9:55 a.m. ET the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 518.98 points, or 2.00 per cent, at 25,423.39, the S&P 500 was down 61.03 points, or 2.12 per cent, at 2,820.37 and the Nasdaq Composite was down 219.42 points, or 2.77 per cent, at 7,697.52.

This will only hurt China in the long run, anyone have a problem with that? I didn’t think so....
