European stocks steady after US markets plunge

@ChloeMarie

A sell-off in global shares eased in Europe on Tuesday following a sharp fall in US stocks that came as investors raised concerns about the negative economic impact of President Donald Trump's tariffs.

It followed the president saying in a TV interview that the world's biggest economy was in a "period of transition", when asked about suggestions of a potential recession.

Since those remarks were broadcast on Sunday, top Trump officials and advisers have sought to calm investor fears.

The US S&P 500 share index fell nearly 3% on Monday, but in Europe most of the major markets opened little changed.
