Global Markets | Germany’s DAX leads European stocks lower on US trade uncertainty

European shares sank in erratic trading on Monday as a fresh wave of uncertainty over US trade policy hit after President Donald Trump announced new rates of global tariffs.

The pan-European STOXX hit a record high last week after the US Supreme Court struck down tariffs that Trump slapped on global economies last year.

Over the weekend, Trump announced a new ⁠10% rate and then raised it to 15%, creating uncertainty about the relevance of trade deals with the EU. The European Commission has rejected the changes.

On Monday, the STOXX fell 0.3% to 628.62 points by 0815 GMT, with Germany’s DAX the top loser, down 0.7%.

Most sectors were in the red, with technology leading the decline with a 1.3% decline, while banks, among the top gainers, were seen as more domestically focused.
