Stocks are under pressure today, with the Dow Jones Industrials falling to a 1-week low. Today’s weak forecast from Walmart has raised concerns about consumer demand and is weighing on stocks. After forecasting lower-than-expected full-year profit, Walmart is down more than -6%, citing an uncertain economic environment. Stocks are also retreating today due to concerns that President Trump’s tariff plans will boost inflation and undercut economic growth.
