White House press secretary "shrugs off" tariff plan's impact on stock market

On March 31 local time, it was learned that this week, a number of senior economic advisers to US President Trump proposed to him a plan to implement new reciprocal tariffs. According to the White House, Trump will make a decision and announce the details of the relevant tariff policy on April 2. White House Press Secretary Levitt said that US Treasury Secretary Vicente, Commerce Secretary Lutnik, US Trade Representative Greer, trade adviser Navarro, senior assistant Miller and Vice President Vance all presented Trump with a plan on how to complete the work. However, she made it clear that the plan will not contain any exemptions. At the same time, she is "not impressed" with the impact of the tariff plan on the stock market. (CCTV)
