47:50Now PlayingPresident Donald Trump unleashed a series of tariff deals and demands on the eve of his Friday deadline, including surprises on India and copper as the US president attempts to create a new global trade order. Trump on Wednesday announced tariffs of 15% on imports from South Korea that matched the rate for neighbor Japan, and a painful 25% levy on imports from India that was accompanied by criticism of its purchases of Russian energy and weapons, pressuring Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Trump also shocked markets with new tariff rules on copper, sinking prices in New York by a record after exempting the most widely traded forms of the metals from 50% tariffs. In market news, Meta and Microsoft led Magnificent Seven stocks higher in premarket trading on Thursday after the companies blew past Wall Street estimates and pledged to boost investments in their artificial intelligence efforts.
