Global markets plunged on Monday following last week's two-day meltdown on Wall Street, and President Donald Trump said he won't back down on his sweeping new tariffs, which have roiled global trade. Countries are scrambling to figure out how to respond to the tariffs, with China and others retaliating quickly. Trump's tariff blitz fulfilled a key campaign promise as he acted without Congress to redraw the rules of the international trading system. It was a move decades in the making for Trump, who has long denounced foreign trade deals as unfair to the US. The higher rates are set to be collected beginning Wednesday, ushering in a new era of economic uncertainty with no clear end in sight.
