US Stock Markets See Worst Day Since Covid Pandemic (theguardian.com) 225
U.S. stock markets suffered their worst day since the Covid pandemic after Donald Trump announced sweeping new tariffs, triggering a global selloff and wiping out $470 billion in value from tech giants Apple and Nvidia. From a report: The tech-heavy Nasdaq fell 6%, while the S&P 500 and the Dow dropped 4.8% and 3.9%, respectively. [...] Meanwhile, the US dollar hit a six-month low, going down at least 2.2% on Thursday morning compared with other major currencies and oil prices sank on fears of a global slowdown. Though the US stock market has been used to tumultuous mornings over the last few weeks, US stock futures -- an indication of the market's likely direction -- had plummeted after the announcement. Hours later, Japan's Nikkei index slumped to an eight-month low and was followed by falls in stock markets in London and across Europe.
Multiple major American business groups have spoken out against the tariffs, including the Business Roundtable, a consortium of leaders of major US companies including JP Morgan, Apple and IBM, which called on the White House to "swiftly reach agreements" and remove the tariffs. "Universal tariffs ranging from 10-50% run the risk of causing major harm to American manufacturers, workers, families and exporters," the Business Roundtable said in a statement. "Damage to the US economy will increase the longer the tariffs are in place and may be exacerbated by retaliatory measures."

First, no country is getting "reciprocal" tariffs. The announced tariffs have nothing to do with reciprocity. Trump made a napkin calculation taking the commercial deficit as a ratio of that country's exports to the USA (giving a number up to 100%) And then divided by 2 (giving a number up to 50%). He also set a minimum tariff of 10%, on countries where the calculation gave 10% or less (or even negative when the USA has a trade surplus with that country).
Israel tried to avoid reciprocal tariffs by removing all tariffs on the USA. It was still slapped with 17% tariffs by Trump.
Second, Canada and Mexico are affected by some tariffs as well, including cars (25%), energy (10%), aluminum and steel (25%). Cuba has much worse than tariffs with the embargo and sanctions.
So the only countries with no new tariffs appears to be Russia, Belarus, North Korea (Trump's best friends) as well as the other countries you named with very little trade with the USA anyways.
It's strange that Trump forgot Palau, because he included some remote islands with 0 citizens (Heard and McDonald islands).
