TORONTO – Stock markets on both sides of the border took a steep tumble Monday as the reality of a U.S.-Canada trade war took further hold, with the TSX losing almost 400 points, while the blue-chip Dow was down almost 900 points and the Nasdaq was four per cent lower.

“Today is a big, big down day by any measure,” said Michael Currie, senior investment adviser at TD Wealth.
