NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / March 23, 2018 / U.S. markets slumped Thursday as concerns over a potential trade war with China continue to grow. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 2.93 percent to close at 23,957.89, while the S&P 500 Index fell 2.52 percent to close at 2,643.69. The Nasdaq Composite Index declined 2.43 percent to close at 7,166.68. On Thursday, the Trump administration unveiled tariffs totaling up to $60 billion on Chinese products.

"Trump's protectionism is making investors nervous," Dario Perkins, managing director of global macro at TS Lombard, said in a note Thursday, according to CNBC. "Past experience suggests these policies are flawed, while even moderate trade barriers could disrupt today's complex global supply chains."
