Markets had dismissed tariff risks under the assumption that Trump would follow an earlier pattern and back off, in what became known as the so-called TACO trade. That allowed stocks to reach new record-high territory recently, marking a stunning rebound from the collapse triggered by his “Liberation Day” reciprocal tariffs in April.

Trump has repeatedly shifted his stance on tariffs since his “Liberation Day” announcement—earning him the nickname “TACO Trump.”

President Donald Trump announced looming tariffs on at least seven countries on Monday as he struggles to lock in new trade agreements with some of the biggest U.S. trading partners.

Trump dubbed it the "Liberation Day," but the crypto market, like the rest of the markets, got trapped in the aftershock. The crypto market cap declined from $2.74 trillion on Apr. 2 to $2.42 trillion on Apr. 8 due to the shock Trump's tariffs caused.
