Asian stocks have had a mixed start to the week as uncertainty over what President Donald Trump will do with tariffs persists
Asian stocks experienced a mixed start to the week due to uncertainty surrounding President Trump's tariff policies. U.S. tariffs on steel and aluminum imports are set to take effect Wednesday. Wall Street rose on Friday after a volatile week driven by concerns about the U.S. economy and tariff uncertainty. The Federal Reserve's head eased market worries by stating the economy looks stable.
