| 0:00.0 | It's Jim Kramer here. You're listening to the opening bell of CBC squawk on the street. Don't miss a minute of the action. Good Thursday morning. Welcome to Squawk on the Street. I'm Carl Kintanilla with Jim Kramer, David Faber, Post 9 of the New York Stock Exchange. Global selloff now in motion as markets respond to this White House tariff announcement. S&P looks to revisit those September lows, and we're watching for |
| 0:21.6 | countermeasures, a possible three-handled this morning on the tenure. We'll see. Let's begin, |
| 0:26.4 | of course, with the global market sell-off a day after the president's announcement, calling |
| 0:30.2 | for a new 10% across-the-board levy on all imported goods, along with higher tariffs at varying |
| 0:36.0 | levels for about 60 countries. |
| 0:38.3 | Here is the President explaining his decision in the Rose Garden yesterday. |
| 0:42.3 | In the face of unrelenting economic warfare, the United States can no longer continue with a policy of unilateral economic surrender. |

| 1:47.1 | But David, there are some companies that are not in the crosshairs that are going down, |
| 1:50.0 | and there are some companies that are in the crosshairs are going up. |
