AI Explanation:
The article has a predominantly negative sentiment due to the decline in US stock markets (S&P 500, Nasdaq Composite, Dow Jones) triggered by new tariffs and a weak jobs report. Amazon's shares also fell due to underperforming cloud services. The firing of the labor statistics chief and accusations of 'rigged' numbers contribute to the negative tone. The mention of Federal Reserve governor stepping down early and potential interest rate changes also add to market uncertainty. The article focuses on broad market movements and specific company performance related to negative economic news. Amazon (AMZN) is directly mentioned as its shares fell. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite are indices, not directly traded tickers. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is also an index.
