As tensions persist in the tariff dispute, President Donald Trump brushed off China's decision to limit the screening of American films.
What Happened: The China Film Administration confirmed on April 10 that it would be reducing U.S. film imports, as reported by <a href="https://variety.com/2025/film/news/donald-trump-laughs-china-hollywood-movies-1236366364/">Variety</a> on Thursday. This decision is a response to Trump&#8217;s recent tariff increases on Chinese goods to 125%.
Trump, when questioned about China&#8217;s decision, responded with a laugh, saying, &#8220;I think I&#8217;ve heard of worse things.&#8221;
The China Film Administration stated that the U.S. government&#8217;s &#8220;wrong action&#8221; to impose high tariffs on China would &#8220;inevitably further reduce the domestic&nbsp;audience's favorability towards American films.&#8221; The administration plans to &#8220;follow the market rules, respect&nbsp;the audience's choice, and moderately&nbsp;reduce the number of American&nbsp;films imported.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The U.S. and China have been embroiled in a trade war, with Trump recently increasing tariffs on Chinese goods to 125%. In retaliation, <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/04/44708618/china-retaliates-with-massive-84-tariff-hike-on-us-goods-amid-escalating-trade-war">China has raised its tariffs</a> on U.S. goods to 84%. 
Hollywood films earned just under $600 million in China's $17.7 billion box office in 2024, a sharp contrast to the $8.6 billion generated across U.S. and Canadian theaters during the same period. 
Stocks like Walt Disney Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) are expected to draw attention due to their globally recognized intellectual property and a history of multi-million dollar blockbusters. Disney also operates a substantial merchandising and theme park business in China, which may face significant headwinds. Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>) is also exposed, with numerous international licensing agreements in China that could be at risk. However, IMAX Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IMAX#NYSE">IMAX</a>) may feel the biggest impact, as it generates 23% of its revenue from China — home to 45% of all IMAX screens.

Trump Shrugs Off China's Cutback On US Films Amid Ongoing Tariff Tensions: 'I've Heard Of Worse Things'

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick offered a forceful defense of the Donald Trump administration's tariff policies, emphasizing the United States' role as a key consumer of global goods.
What Happened: "We are the world's customer. The customer is always right," Lutnick said during a recent appearance on the All-In podcast. "When we say we're going to charge a tariff, and other countries who lean on us, who rely on us, who can't live without the oxygen that is our economy… we buy everybody's stuff."
Lutnick cited a U.S. gross domestic product of $29 trillion, with Americans purportedly spending $20 trillion. "So who is more important? Let's say they have an economy that produces stuff. And we have an economy that buys stuff. The customer is always right," he asserted.

</figure>
He singled out China, contending it "consumes less than $10T and primarily tries to figure out how to sell it to itself," meaning it "doesn't buy anybody else's stuff." From Lutnick's perspective, this reliance on selling goods to the United States grants Washington leverage in trade negotiations: "We want them to come here. And if they can't come here, what if you pay us?"

The Counter-Argument: Critics argue that Trump&#8217;s aggressive tariffs on imported goods expose America's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44705879/trump-tariffs-push-eu-to-hit-23-billion-in-us-exports-including-orange-juice-poulty-and-steel-from-red-states">vulnerability to retaliation</a> targeting its thriving services exports. While the U.S. maintains a significant $295 billion surplus in services — selling $1.1 trillion worth of financial products, cloud computing, and digital platforms abroad — other nations could respond by imposing hefty reciprocal tariffs or regulatory hurdles to counteract Trump&#8217;s tariffs on goods.
Foreign governments have multiple non-tariff tools, including antitrust probes, restrictive licensing, and digital-service taxes, that can seriously impede American tech giants. European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen, in fact, said on Thursday that the EU is preparing a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44754753/meta-google-and-other-big-us-tech-firms-could-end-up-paying-up-if-trump-tariff-talks-collapse-warns-european-commission-president-no-winners-in-this-only-losers">slate of retaliatory measures</a> that could include levies on digital advertising revenues from U.S. tech companies like Facebook-parent Meta and Alphabet&#8217;s Google.
Meanwhile, Economist and Obama-era Treasury Secretary Larry Summers strongly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44754763/obama-era-treasury-secretary-larry-summers-rejects-china-cheating-at-trade-narrative-we-get-ev-batteries-for-pieces-of-paper-its-a-good-deal">rejected claims</a> that China has been &#8220;cheating&#8221; on trade since joining the World Trade Organization in 2001, arguing instead that the U.S. has benefited from a &#8220;good deal.&#8221;

Howard Lutnick Defends Trump Tariffs Saying 'Everybody Needs Our Economy' — Especially China

President Donald Trump has warned of &#8220;transition problems&#8221; as the global tariff war rages on, causing markets to falter.
What Happened: Trump admitted the possibility of difficulties during a cabinet meeting. Despite the upheaval, he remained positive about the eventual outcome, saying, &#8220;There'll be a transition cost and transition problems, but in the end, it's going to be a beautiful thing,&#8221; <a href="https://www.youtube.com/shorts/qj_m4yIWkyE">reported </a>CNBC.
"We're doing again, what we should have done many years ago," stated the President.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Trump expects &#039;transition problems&#039; related to his tariff shift" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qj_m4yIWkyE?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
</figure>
The President&#8217;s remarks followed the White House&#8217;s announcement that tariffs on certain Chinese goods would skyrocket to 145%. This is on top of an existing 20% tariff on fentanyl producers. Despite the escalating trade war, Trump is still hopeful for a deal with China.
Meanwhile, the stock market had another volatile day on Thursday, with substantial losses across the S&amp;P 500, Dow Jones, and Nasdaq. 
Despite the market chaos, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent tried to calm fears, stating that over 75 countries were keen to start trade negotiations. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick echoed this sentiment, asserting, &#8220;We&#8217;re&nbsp;getting the respect we deserve&nbsp;now.&#8221; When asked about the stock market turmoil on Thursday, Bessent spoke about the good inflation number and oil prices going down and stated, &#8220;I don&#8217;t think I see anything unusual today.&#8221; 
Why It Matters: Trump&#8217;s warning of &#8220;transition problems&#8221; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44222440/financial-crime-weekly">echoes his comments</a> in March about a potential &#8220;period of transition&#8221; for the economy. This comes amid fears of a possible recession and significant changes to the economy, including tariffs and federal workforce reductions. For investors, the immediate concern is whether the market's recent volatility is a precursor to further declines or a sign of a potential reset.
The President&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44728207/trump-says-this-is-a-great-time-to-buy-but-portfolio-managers-give-a-reality-check-permanent-damage-has-been-done">recent announcement</a> of a 90-day pause and a reduced Reciprocal Tariff of 10% marked a significant shift from his previous stance. However, the escalating trade war and its impact on the stock market have raised concerns among investors and analysts.
Jake Schurmeier, portfolio manager at&nbsp;Harbor Capital, stated that even though the pause is encouraging, it doesn't resolve the ongoing uncertainty. "We likely go higher for a few days, but I think permanent damage has been done.&#8221; In the Investment Committee debate on CNBC, analysts argue that without a defined plan, corporate guidance and investor confidence will remain weak. &nbsp;
Tech stocks slumped after a sharp rally, as markets reassessed the impact of Trump's new China tariffs. Tech stocks, Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), dropped 6.74%, while Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) fell 5.9% and 4.24%, respectively. Meanwhile, chip stocks, Advanced Micro Devices Inc.

'There'll Be A Transition Cost,' Trump Says Amid Tariff Woes As Bessent Hints At Behind-The-Scenes Negotiations

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed an increase in the overall fear level, while the index remained in the &#8220;Extreme Fear&#8221; zone on Thursday.
U.S. stocks settled lower on Thursday, with the Dow Jones index dipping more than 1,000 points during the session as investors digested the 90-day tariff pause and weighed lingering economic risks to the outlook.
Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) shares fell over 4%, while Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) declined around 6% on Thursday. Shares of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) also tumbled more than 7% during the session.
On the economic data front, the Consumer Price Index fell from 2.8% year-over-year in February to 2.4% in March, below expectations of 2.6% and marking the lowest reading since September 2024. On a monthly basis, inflation was negative by 0.1% — the first decline since May 2020.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a negative note, with energy, information technology, and communication services stocks recording the biggest losses on Thursday. However, consumer staples stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session higher.
The Dow Jones closed lower by around 1,015 points to 39,593.66 on Thursday. The S&amp;P 500 fell 3.46% to 5,268.05, while the Nasdaq Composite dipped 4.31% to 16,387.31 during Thursday's session.

What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 8.4, the index remained in the &#8220;Extreme Fear&#8221; zone on Thursday, versus a prior reading of 12.3.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

BlackRock Gears Up For Q1 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

ValueAct Holdings, L.P. initiated a position in Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) in the fourth quarter of 2024, purchasing 536,900 shares worth approximately $122 million, according to a 13F-HR filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Feb. 14.
What Happened: Since then, Amazon&#8217;s stock has dropped 20.81% from $228.86 to $181.22 as of Thursday&#8217;s close, largely due to pressure from President Donald Trump&#8216;s newly implemented tariff policies. 
The decline reduced ValueAct&#8217;s Amazon investment by about $25 million to roughly $97 million.
Meanwhile, the San Francisco-based activist hedge fund reduced its Salesforce Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>) position by 1,015,800 shares, a 26% cut to its largest holding. 
Salesforce stock has fallen 21.63% from $325.54 to $255.12 during the same period. This well-timed reduction helped ValueAct avoid approximately $71 million in potential losses amid market volatility.

Why It Matters: The strategic moves come during a tumultuous market environment where Trump&#8217;s administration has implemented a temporary 10% universal tariff on most imports and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44753780/us-stock-futures-fall-nikkei-crashes-over-5-as-markets-reel-from-trumps-tariff-shock">a steep 145% duty on Chinese goods</a>, triggering significant market declines. The Nasdaq-100 lost 4.19% and the S&amp;P 500 fell 3.46% in recent trading.
ValueAct&#8217;s investment approach aligns with its history of backing technology and growth sectors. The firm, which manages <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43518855/jeff-ubbens-valueact-bet-on-meta-visa-and-exited-spotify-in-q3-was-it-a-clever-move">approximately $9.27 billion in assets</a>, has demonstrated mixed results with recent investments. 
Led by CEO Mason Morfit and co-CEO Rob Hale since founder Jeff Ubben&#8216;s departure in 2020, ValueAct has built a reputation for its collaborative activist investment style that seeks to influence <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43875453/valueact-bets-119-million-on-amazon-as-analysts-see-25-upside-whats-driving-jeff-bezos-e-commerce-giant">corporate policy to enhance company value</a>.

Top Wall Street Forecasters Revamp JPMorgan Price Expectations Ahead Of Q1 Earnings

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) has unveiled a new trim for its Cybertruck. The new trim is RWD (rear-wheel drive) and offers a range of over 362 miles on a single charge.
What happened: Tesla has officially revealed its price with the Cybertruck Long Range RWD retailing in the U.S. for $69,990 and $62,490 with the federal EV credit.

The trim level is lighter than the AWD (all-wheel drive) trims and has a reduced ground clearance of 243mm compared to the 406mm on the AWD Cybertrucks. The truck also rides on 18" wheels and misses out on features like a rear screen, ventilated seats, and an air suspension. The towing capacity is also reduced to 7500 lbs.
Why it matters: Elon Musk's Tesla recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44728787/tesla-to-make-saudi-arabia-debut-amid-infrastructure-challenges">debuted in Saudi Arabia</a> at an event in its capital city, Riyadh.

Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund — PIF — has outlined an ambitious target of producing over 500,000 battery EVs by the year 2030. Tesla's arrival in Saudi Arabia could prove to be a paradigm shift for the local EV market, and could also help Elon Musk's company cement its position in the region.
The truck's release could also be Tesla's way of appealing to a wider audience as it looks to offset the negativity surrounding the brand.
Tesla properties, superchargers, as well as products like the Cybertruck, have been a target of vandalism in the US due to Elon Musk's involvement with the Donald Trump administration and the Department of Government Efficiency. Tesla sales have been down in almost every major country in the EU, except for the UK.
Price action: TSLA stock has experienced a decline in value, currently trading at $252.40, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>. While the stock is up 15.89% over 6 months, it has declined by 37.5% year-to-date.

Tesla Unveils New Cybertruck Long Range Trim With A 362-Mile Range And Reduced Features

Leading consulting giants Accenture Plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ACN#NYSE">ACN</a>), Deloitte, and Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAH#NYSE">BAH</a>) are facing significant contract reductions as the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) announced a sweeping $5.1 billion cut in IT services and other contracts deemed &#8220;wasteful spending.&#8221;
What Happened: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued these cuts on late Thursday as part of a broader effort to streamline the department&#8217;s budget and redirect funds toward warfighting capabilities and improved healthcare for service members and their families.
&#8220;We need this money to spend on better health care for our warfighters and their families, instead of $500 an hour business process consultant,&#8221; Hegseth said. &#8220;That&#8217;s a lot of consulting.&#8221;
According to the memorandum, Secretary Hegseth detailed the specific areas targeted for cuts, emphasizing a shift away from reliance on external consultants for services that can be performed by the DoD&#8217;s workforce.
&#8220;That&#8217;s with a &#8216;B&#8217;; $5.1 billion in DOD contracts for ancillary things like consulting and other nonessential services,&#8221; Hegseth said while recording a video of the announcement from his office.
He specifically highlighted several major contracts being terminated, including:
<ul>
<li>$1.8 billion in consulting contracts awarded by the Defense Health Agency to various private sector firms, including Accenture, Deloitte, and Booz Allen, for services the DoD believes its civilian workforce can handle.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>A $1.4 billion Air Force contract with Accenture for reselling third-party enterprise cloud IT services, which the department intends to fulfill directly using existing procurement resources.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>A $500 million Navy contract for business process consulting for administrative offices.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>A $500 million contract with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) for IT help desk services was deemed &#8220;completely duplicative&#8221; of existing services provided by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA).</li>
</ul>

Why It Matters: The announcement builds upon a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44434720/defense-secretary-slashes-580-million-in-wasteful-spending-targets-overdue-overpriced-projects">previous $580 million in cuts</a> announced on March 20, bringing the total savings identified under the Department of Government Efficiency or DOGE initiatives to &#8220;nearly $6 billion in wasteful spending over the first six weeks,&#8221; Hegseth added.
Beyond IT services, the remaining $0.9 billion to reach the $5.1 billion total comes from the termination of 11 additional contracts across the DoD.
These contracts target consulting services related to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), climate change initiatives, the department&#8217;s response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and other &#8220;non-essential activities.&#8221;
To ensure the continued efficiency of the DoD&#8217;s IT operations, Secretary Hegseth has directed the DoD Chief Information Officer (CIO), in coordination with the DOGE team, to develop a 30-day plan for:
<ul>
<li>In-sourcing IT consulting and management services to the department&#8217;s civilian workforce. </li>
<li>Negotiating the most favorable rates for software and cloud services. </li>
<li>Completing an audit of DoD software licensing by April 18, 2025, to eliminate unnecessary expenditures.</li>
</ul>
Price Action: Shares of Accenture were down 18.23% on a year-to-date basis, whereas it declined by 12.29% over a year. Booz Allen Hamilton, on the other hand, was down 15.07% YTD and 24.54% over a year.
The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which track the S&amp;P 500 index and Nasdaq 100 index, respectively, ended lower on Thursday. The SPY was down 4.38% to $524.58, while the QQQ declined 4.25% to $446.18, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a> data.
