Day 80: Seeing red? What it's like on the New York stock exchange floor

On Day 80 US correspondents Mark Stone, Martha Kelner, and James Matthews digest some of the Supreme Court’s latest decisions. They’re swinging largely in favour of the Trump administration, but with some important small print.

And Trump’s soaring tariffs on China take effect. Now a whopping 104% as of Wednesday morning, James has been at the New York Stock Exchange, where the boards started green but soon slipped back to red.

Plus, former best buddy Elon Musk seems to have broken ranks even further, calling Trump’s top trade adviser “a moron”. “Boys will be boys,” the White House press secretary says.
