White House Considers Adjustments to Tariff Policy Amid Market Concerns

According to Odaily, the White House is contemplating changes to the tariff policy initially set for implementation on April 2. The proposed adjustments aim to adopt more targeted measures, avoiding tariffs on specific industries and applying 'reciprocal tariffs' only to countries with trade imbalances. This consideration has eased market tensions. Analysts highlight that while tariffs do not directly impact cryptocurrency prices, the market remains sensitive to the macroeconomic uncertainties stemming from U.S. President Donald Trump's trade policies. Zach Pandl, Head of Research at Grayscale, noted that increased policy uncertainty has led investors to reduce overall risk exposure, affecting Bitcoin as well. Additionally, the Federal Reserve recently announced a slowdown in its balance sheet reduction, decreasing the monthly cap on Treasury reductions from $25 billion to $5 billion to alleviate market liquidity pressures.
