The SET tumbled early in the week, dropping below 1,200 points to hit its lowest in nearly 5 years (4 years and 11 months) at 1,173.13 points amid profit-taking in individual stocks, especially those of technology companies, and concerns about the impact of trade wars as US has imposed 25% tariffs on Canadian and Mexican goods, and an extra 10% tariffs on Chinese imports from March 4 onwards, and China quickly announced retaliatory tariffs against US.
