Flaring trade tensions between the US and China sent shockwaves across markets Friday, hammering stocks, oil and crypto while spurring a dash for the perceived safety of Treasuries and gold. President Donald Trump’s threat of a “massive increase” in China tariffs shook Wall Street at the end of an already-volatile week that saw concern build about a bubble in artificial-intelligence companies. But rare earth stocks like MP Materials, which the US took a stake in, rose after Trump said China's export controls and rare earths monopoly is "a rather sinister and hostile move."
