US EditionDonald Trump's approval rating suffers double dent
- Donald Trump's approval rating declined amid market and economic fluctuations in April and early May 2025 in the United States.
- This drop followed Trump’s announcement of 'Liberation Day' tariffs and political backlash linked to economic uncertainty and inflation worries.
- In April, inflation edged up by 0.2 percent month-over-month, while the annual rate slowed to 2.3 percent—the lowest level since February 2021—driven in part by higher costs for household furnishings and housing.
- Chris Zaccarelli, CIO of Northlight Asset Management, noted that concerns about a recession triggered by tariffs and persistent inflation have largely eased following a slowdown in tariff escalation and positive developments in trade relations with China.
- The eased inflation figures and market rebound suggest tariffs have yet to significantly raise prices, but Trump's approval ratings could fluctuate depending on evolving economic and trade conditions.
