Major U.S. indices experienced turbulent sessions on Thursday, with the S&P 500 entering technical correction territory. The index fell 10% from its all-time high, rattled by escalating trade tensions and the latest tariff threats from President Donald Trump. Despite recent inflation data painting a more optimistic picture for the U.S. economy, investors remain focused on trade policy risks, worrying that escalating tariffs could undermine corporate earnings and disrupt supply chains.

The S&P 500 index fell by nearly 1.4%, closing at 5,521.52, while the Nasdaq dropped almost 2%, finishing at 17,303.02. The Dow Jones Industrial Average also ended Thursday down 1.3%, at 40,813.57.
