Good morning.
It's Tuesday, April 8th.
I'm Shamita Basu.
This is Apple News Today.
On today's show,
the flight attendants working ICE's deportation flights,
the dark secrets of Johnson & Johnson,
and a New York community rallies to bring a mother and her three children home from immigration detention.
But first, it was another wild day for stocks as the markets continued to react to President Trump's tariff policy.
The Dow Jones fell more than 300 points,
marking a third straight day of losses and its biggest one-day swing in points ever.
The S&P 500 dipped about a quarter of a percent and briefly entered bear market territory.
The Nasdaq, meanwhile, rose .1 percent.
Also exacerbating the volatile trading session today, President Trump continued his back and forth with China,
threatening to enact additional tariffs of 50 percent if Beijing doesn't remove its 34 percent tariff on U.S.
goods.
As we continue to examine the fallout of the Trump administration's tariff policy, let's take a closer look at Michigan.
Nearly 20 percent of the state economy is tied to the auto industry,
which is now facing 25 percent tariffs on imported vehicles.
And starting next month, Trump has promised 25 percent tariffs on imported parts as well.
