The "Trump Tariff" Stress Test

The markets just faced a major shock. Following President Trump’s announcement of a global tariff hike to 15%, Bitcoin experienced a sharp 5% dip, briefly sliding below $65,000. While traditional equities in some regions showed resilience, Bitcoin behaved more like a high-beta risk asset. This divergence highlights that while the "Digital Gold" narrative is strong, $BTC is still highly sensitive to sudden shifts in U.S. trade policy and global liquidity.
