Dow Closes Down More than 300 Points on the Day of the State of the Union
The Dow closed today down more than 300 points. The major dip occurred on the same day as President Trump's first State of the Union address.
Stepehn Massocca is a managing director at Wedbush Equity Management. He joins Cheddar to break down the major dip.
When asked if he expects this dip to continue, Massocca says he thinks it will depend a lot on the fixed income market. That being said, Massocca does not anticipate a continued decline.
Apple CEO Tim Cook said Thursday that the majority of iPhones sold in the U.S. in the current fiscal quarter will be sourced from India, while iPads and other devices will come from Vietnam as the company works to avoid the impact of President Trump’s tariffs on its business. Apple’s earnings for the first three months of the year topped Wall Street’s expectations thanks to high demand for its iPhones, and the company said tariffs had a limited effect on the fiscal second quarter’s results. Cook added that for the current quarter, assuming things don’t change, Apple expects to see $900 million added to its costs as a result of the tariffs.
