In the wake of the recent U.S. tariffs announcement, Singapore&#8217;s leading political figures have voiced their apprehensions, warning of potential economic repercussions. 
What Happened: Prime Minister Lawrence Wong expressed concerns about the growing possibility of a global trade war, stating that the tariffs could have serious implications for all countries, especially smaller ones like Singapore, <a href="https://www.scmp.com/news/asia/southeast-asia/article/3305481/singapores-leaders-warn-over-trump-tariff-bombshell-its-not-good-news">reported</a> the South China Morning Post.
"It will spell trouble for all nations especially small ones like Singapore."
"We risk being squeezed out, marginalised and left behind," Wong added.
The country is subject to a minimum 10% universal tariff on all exports to the US, one of the lowest in Southeast Asia.
The city-state&#8217;s benchmark Straits Times Index has experienced a notable decline in response to the news. The STI plummeted 7.84% on Monday.

Senior Minister Lee Hsien Loong reiterated Wong&#8217;s concerns at a community event, emphasizing the potential impact on Singapore&#8217;s trade, economy, and future. The city-state&#8217;s top trade official announced that Singapore would need to reassess its economic forecast in light of the new tariffs.
"It's going to affect our trade, it's going to affect our economy, it's going to affect our region and it's going to affect our future," Lee said. 
"It's not good news."
However, opposition figures have criticized the government&#8217;s response, accusing it of scaremongering ahead of the upcoming national vote. The tariffs announcement comes at a time when cost-of-living pressures are a major concern for Singapore&#8217;s citizens.
Why It Matters: The U.S. tariffs have been a source of global concern, <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/04/44660475/more-than-50-nations-ready-to-revisit-tariffs-says-white-house-advisor">with over 50 countries</a>, including Singapore, ready to negotiate on the high import tariffs that have sent global markets into a tailspin.

Furthermore, the US markets faced a severe downturn as tensions between the US and China escalated, <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44655719/trump-tariffs-erode-5-trillion-in-market-cap-in-2-days-as-china-retaliates-jerome-powell-warns-of-inflation">eroding $5 trillion in market cap</a> in just two days.

The European Union is reportedly preparing to levy a hefty fine on X, a social network owned by&nbsp;Elon Musk. The fine, which could exceed $1 billion, is expected to be announced this summer.
What Happened: This penalty would be the first under the new EU law. The fine could exceed $1 billion as regulators seek to discourage other companies from breaching the Digital Services Act, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/us/politics/musk-x-european-union-fine.html">reported</a> The New York Times.
A source told the publication that the European regulators &#8220;..want it to be big enough to pressure other companies to comply with the law.&#8221; 
The European Commission concluded last year that X had breached the Digital Services Act, aimed at tackling unlawful content and misinformation. The regulators are now deliberating on the appropriate penalty. &#8220;The&nbsp;penalties are set to include&nbsp;a fine and demands for&nbsp;product changes,&#8221; the Times reported, citing four individuals familiar with the plans.
X&#8217;s global government affairs account hit back at the European regulators on Friday. &#8220;If&nbsp;the reports that the European&nbsp;Commission is considering enforcement actions&nbsp;against X are accurate, it&nbsp;represents an unprecedented act of&nbsp;political censorship and an attack&nbsp;on free speech,&#8221; X stated.

Additionally, a separate EU investigation is ongoing, building a case that X&#8217;s lax approach to monitoring&nbsp;user-generated content has made it&nbsp;a hub for illegal hate speech and disinformation, potentially leading to further penalties.
Why It Matters: The EU launched a formal investigation into X in December 2023 to examine possible violations of the Digital Services Act, focusing on areas such as risk management, content moderation, dark patterns, advertising transparency, and researcher access to data.
Notably, in late March, the European regulators decided to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/03/44534573/eu-to-issue-minimal-fines-to-apple-and-meta-to-avoid-retaliation-from-trump-administration">impose minimal fines</a> on Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and Meta (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) To avoid any pushback from the Trump administration.
This development comes on the heels of&nbsp;Elon Musk&#8216;s other ventures facing challenges in Europe. Earlier this month, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) witnessed a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44601458/teslas-european-sales-decline-for-3rd-consecutive-month-amid-china-competition-ceo-elon-musks-political-controversies">decline in sales</a> in key European markets for three consecutive months. This downturn has been attributed to increasing competition from China and backlash against Musk&#8217;s political activities.
With the EU&#8217;s impending fine on X, Musk&#8217;s business interests in Europe could face further headwinds. The fine and potential product changes could have significant implications for X and other tech companies operating in the region.

EU Reportedly Set To Fine Elon Musk's Social Media Platform Over $1 Billion For Violating New Digital Act: X Calls It 'An Unprecedented Act Of Political Censorship'

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk has publicly voiced his criticism of&nbsp;Trump trade advisor Peter Navarro&nbsp;over President Donald Trump&#8217;s tariffs. Navarro, however, has denied any feud with Musk.
What Happened: Early Saturday Musk on his social media platform X questioned Navarro&#8217;s support of Trump&#8217;s tariffs. Musk, who has generally been supportive of President Donald Trump, has not previously commented on the President&#8217;s trade policies and their effect on the stock market.
An X user posted a video of Navarro defending the administration&#8217;s tariff calculations while praising the trade adviser&#8217;s PhD in economics from Harvard. Musk responded to the video, implying that Navarro&#8217;s Harvard economics PhD was a disadvantage.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="615" height="194" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/07015317/image-49.png" alt="" class="wp-image-859166" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/07015317/image-49.png 615w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/07015317/image-49-300x95.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 615px) 100vw, 615px" /></figure>
Musk also&nbsp;responded&nbsp;"yup" to a post that quoted economist Thomas Sowell, stating, "In every disaster throughout American history, there always seems to be a man from Harvard in the middle of it."
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="605" height="457" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/07020345/image-50.png" alt="" class="wp-image-859177" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/07020345/image-50.png 605w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/07020345/image-50-300x227.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 605px) 100vw, 605px" /></figure>
Meanwhile, when asked on Fox News about Musk&#8217;s remarks and a possible disagreement, Navarro responded, &#8220;It&#8217;s fine, there&#8217;s no rift here.&#8221; He further suggested that Musk, as a businessman, was &#8220;simply protecting his own interest&#8221; by opposing him and Trump&#8217;s tariffs.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="915" height="500" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/07023923/image-51.png" alt="" class="wp-image-859219" style="width:678px;height:auto" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/07023923/image-51.png 915w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/07023923/image-51-300x164.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/07023923/image-51-768x420.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 915px) 100vw, 915px" /></figure>
&#8220;Elon is great when he sticks to his DOGE lane,&#8221; Navarro said, but stated that the billionaire &#8220;sells cars&#8221; and is &#8220;just looking out for his own interests&#8221; by opposing him and Trump's tariffs—&#8221;just like any businessperson would.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Musk&#8217;s remarks surfaced as he has largely refrained from the tariff discussion. However, he later expressed a desire for the U.S. and Europe to move toward a zero-tariff system, in response to Trump's imposition of a 20% tariff on goods from the European Union.
Musk&#8217;s net worth has taken a significant hit following Trump's tariff announcement, with billions wiped off. Despite this, Forbes still ranks the billionaire as the world&#8217;s richest person, with an estimated net worth of $362.5 billion as of Sunday. Tesla's stock plunged nearly 15% between Trump's tariff announcement on Wednesday and Friday&#8217;s close at $239.43. 
In March, Musk acknowledged that although his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44507598/elon-musk-warns-of-significant-impact-on-tesla-due-to-trumps-auto-tariffs-the-cost-impact-is-not-trivial">auto company </a>leads in U.S. manufacturing compared to competitors, "Tesla is still significantly impacted by tariffs." Meanwhile, shares of Musk&#8217;s SpaceX, a privately held company, dropped 12% last week, as reported by secondary market data provider Notice. The decline is linked to SpaceX's reliance on products sourced from Taiwan, Vietnam, and Thailand—countries heavily impacted by Trump's tariffs.

Labelling Blue Origin's upcoming <a href="https://benzinga.com/general/space/25/02/44019974/katy-perry-gayle-king-lauren-sanchez-headline-next-blue-origin-space-flight-how-jeff-bezos-fiancee-crew-will-make-history">all-female space mission</a> as "gluttonous", actress Olivia Munn slammed it on a recent appearance on Today With Jenna and Friends.
What Happened: On the April 3 episode of the morning show, Munn questioned the excitement generated by the 11-minute suborbital flight, which will carry Lauren Sánchez, Gayle King, Katy Perry, Aisha Bowe, Amanda Nguyen, and Kerianne Flynn to space. "What are they doing?" Munn asked, raising doubts about the value of such a mission. "There are so many other things that are so important in the world right now."

After being told that the mission would last for 11 minutes in total, Munn drew comparisons with a high-budget amusement park ride. "It's like their own version of Space Mountain," she said, interrogating both the public spectacle and the glamorization of the short-lived journey.
Why It Matters: While the flight is being touted as a "milestone" for gender representation in space travel, Munn wasn't persuaded. "If you wanna go to space, why do you need to tell us about it?" she asked. "Just go, have a good time, come back down." She also expressed concerns about the ecological impact and the immense financial requirements. "It's so much money to go to space, and there's a lot of people who can't even afford eggs," she observed.
Munn also seemed shocked by reports that the crew planned to be "in full glam" for the flight, retorting, "They said this out loud?" She added, "What's the point? Is it historic that you guys are going on a ride? I think it's a bit gluttonous."
The mission will be Blue Origin's 11th human flight and 31st overall. Its all-female lineup and high-profile participants have been focal points in the promotions rolled out by Blue Origin.
In 2023, data from UNOOSA demonstrated that women comprised just 11% of the world's astronauts, only 6.6% of spacewalks had been performed by women, and only 20% of the broader space workforce was made up of women.

Olivia Munn Questions Purpose And Cost Of Blue Origin's 'Gluttonous' All-Female Space Mission

XRP (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/xrp/usd">XRP</a>) may have been hammered in the Sunday crash, but futures traders are optimistic that the price will recover soon.
What Happened:&nbsp;About 74% of Binance traders with&nbsp;open XRP&nbsp;futures positions were positioned long on the fourth-largest cryptocurrency, <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/LongShortRatio">according </a>to Coinglass, up from 70% a day ago. This is despite a 21% drop in its price in the last 24 hours.
A few predictions justified the positioning. Widely followed cryptocurrency analyst CrediBULL Crypto opined that XRP&#8217;s pullback before outperformance made sense.
&#8220;I remain more bullish than ever on XRP and its continued outperformance. This would just be a small speed bump along the way, nothing more,&#8221; the analyst added.
Interestingly, the analyst said they expect a &#8220;deviation&#8221; and not a &#8220;breakdown&#8221; below $1.80 before the next leg up.

Conversely, noted economic analyst Jesse Colombo painted a bearish narrative, highlighting XRP&#8217;s drop below its support zone.
&#8220;The head and shoulders pattern projects it sinking all the way back to 60 cents in a complete unwinding of its fall rally,&#8221; Colombo projected.
The head and shoulders chart pattern depicts a bullish-to-bearish trend reversal, signaling that an upward trend is nearing its end.

Renowned cryptocurrency analyst Michaël van de Poppe warned Monday that Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) could test the $70,000 level amid what he described as &#8220;Black Monday&#8221; panic selling, as global markets experience their worst selloff since March 2020.
What Happened: &#8220;Black Monday, Bitcoin back to the lows,&#8221; van de Poppe wrote on X. &#8220;I think we&#8217;ll see a rollercoaster 1-2 weeks in which we&#8217;re having a test of the lows for Bitcoin. It can go as deep as $70K from here.&#8221;
Bitcoin was trading at $74,958.16, down 9.86% in the last 24 hours, extending losses as U.S. stock futures plummeted Sunday evening. Dow Jones Industrial Average futures fell over 1,000 points following a historic selloff that has erased trillions in U.S. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44659686/stock-futures-tank-dow-sheds-over-1000-points-as-white-house-remains-firm-on-tariffs-trump-says-sometimes-you-have-to-take-medicine">market value since Thursday</a>.
The catalyst for the market turbulence was President Donald Trump&#8216;s sweeping new tariffs on imports from U.S. trading partners, announced Wednesday after market close. This triggered a crash on Thursday and Friday, when China <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/04/44660779/sp-500-dow-jones-on-course-to-mimic-rare-consecutive-losses-not-seen-since-the-great-depression-whats-driving-the-fear">announced retaliatory measures</a>.
Trump remained firm on the tariff strategy despite mounting market pressure. &#8220;I don&#8217;t want anything to go down, but sometimes you have to take medicine to fix something,&#8221; Trump said Sunday.

Why It Matters: The magnitude of consecutive market drops has drawn comparisons to the Great Depression, with analysts noting rare consecutive steep declines in major indices. Ryan Detrick of Carson Research highlighted that if the S&amp;P 500 closed down by 4% Monday, it would mark the third consecutive day of a 4% or greater decline — something only seen three times in history, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/04/44660779/sp-500-dow-jones-on-course-to-mimic-rare-consecutive-losses-not-seen-since-the-great-depression-whats-driving-the-fear">all during the Great Depression</a>.
Van de Poppe said Bitcoin's recovery depends on Trump delaying tariffs, which he sees as unlikely, or an emergency Fed meeting within one to two weeks. Without either, deeper losses may follow.
Despite the panic, the crypto analyst remained optimistic about Bitcoin&#8217;s long-term outlook, advising investors to consider the current correction as a buying opportunity. &#8220;If we talk about Bitcoin specific, then these are the areas where you want to be allocating assets, as it&#8217;s a 30% correction from the high. In 12-24 months from now you&#8217;ll be happy that you&#8217;ve bought in these areas,&#8221; he added.

The S&amp;P 500 index, also known as the SPX, is widely regarded as the barometer of the overall U.S. stock market. The index measures the performance of 500 large-cap publicly traded companies in the U.S., including the "<a href="https://in.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/25/04/44649868/magnificent-7s-3-trillion-club-is-vacant-as-apple-stock-stumbles">Magnificent 7&#8243;</a> cohort.
Few people might be aware, though, that there even exists a cryptocurrency called SPX, which, interestingly, has netted mammoth returns to its holders over the last year.
What happened: SPX6900 (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">SPX</a>), a parody coin with a market capitalization of over $400 million, has surged an eye-popping 17474.22% in the last year.&nbsp;
In fact, the Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>)-based token finished 2024 as the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42717267/2024s-cryptocurrency-champions-these-top-performers-surpass-bitcoin-in-a-year-of-unprecedented-gains">year's second-biggest gainer</a>, dwarfing the returns from market heavyweights like Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>).
The token&#8217;s fan page jokingly <a href="https://www.spx6900.com/">suggests </a>that it aims to challenge the dominance of the S&amp;P 500 index by establishing a new stock market index, SPX6900.
"This movement is more than numbers; it's a redefinition of dominance, relevance, and inclusion in global markets. As the financial world takes notice, the idea of the SPX6900 sends a clear message: it&#8217;s time to think bigger," the token's synopsis read.

The website&#8217;s disclaimer, however, clarified that the meme currency was made just for entertainment and had nothing to do with stocks or securities.
And, despite its stratospheric rise last year, SPX, like the rest of the cryptocurrency industry, has faltered in 2025. Year-to-date, the coin has plunged nearly 50% and is currently trading down 75% from its all-time highs.
Markets have been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/44659799/bitcoin-plunges-below-80000-ethereum-dogecoin-crash-as-cryptocurrencies-mirror-stocks-amid-trump-tariff-mayhem-analyst-flags-critical-support-level-for-btc">pounded </a>by President Donald Trump's sweeping tariff policies in 2025. The S&amp;P 500 has lost over 13% year-to-date, with Friday marking its worst decline since March 2020. It closed 
Price Action:  At the time of writing, SPX memecoin was exchanging hands at $0.4387, down 12.39% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>. The S&amp;P 500 closed Friday down 5.97% to 5,074.08.
