The FTSE 100 is bracing for a downturn as mounting tariff concerns weigh on investor sentiment across equities. Trade policy uncertainties continue to create headwinds for global markets, with traditional stocks now facing renewed pressure. The prospect of escalating trade tensions is driving risk-off positioning, reflecting broader concerns about economic growth and corporate earnings resilience. Market participants are closely monitoring tariff developments, as any further escalation could intensify selling pressure across multiple asset classes.

Tariffs are really a bomb, even traditional stocks can't withstand them When a trade war erupts, everything has to fall Risk assets are fleeing, this time it's a bit scary Traditional finance should wake up, it's not just crypto being suppressed Whenever tariffs escalate, everyone collectively cuts losses, it's too surreal It's not surprising that FTSE has fallen, the question is how far this wave can go So it's still necessary to hold some non-traditional assets as a safeguard

Here we go again with tariffs... Are traditional stocks really going to become unholdable? I feel like I need to run away.

Tariffs really messed up traditional stocks Trade wars never end, and my holdings never end... I’ve been smelling a decline in the FTSE for a while Risk assets should be fleeing, but some guys are still bottom-fishing—really brave As soon as tariff news broke, it was a direct risk-off move, classic套路

Tariff is about to cut the leeks again; traditional stocks really can't hold up anymore.
