Trade war, tariffs and uncertainty drag markets to worst week in years

From PBS NewsHour.

Stocks were in free fall again Friday, ending the markets’ worst week in years as a trade war heated up. China responded to President Trump’s tariffs with their own, 34 percent on all imported U.S. goods. Markets also fell after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said tariffs are expected to lead to higher prices and weaken the economy. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Justin Wolfers.
