Some believe that the rumors started with a misinterpretation of a Fox News interview with the Director of the US National Economic Council Kevin Hassett. Hassett backed Trump’s tariff strategy but never mentioned a “tariff pause”.
At 10:15 AM ET, mainstream media outlets reported the rumors as breaking news. A few minutes later, the stock and crypto markets skyrocketed.
At 10:25 AM ET, financial journalists and analysts began sharing conflicting reports as the White House reportedly didn’t know of any tariff pause. A minute later, CNBC retracted its report, claiming the rumors were false.
At 10:34 AM ET, the White House official rejected the rumors, calling it “fake news”.
At 10:40 AM ET, the S&P 500 index lost $2.5 trillion of its value after taking a 9.6% blow.
