Denmark deploys additional troops to Greenland after President Donald Trump claims the island is not secure from Russia or China.

Stocks tumbled in early trading on Tuesday as President Donald Trump threatened tariffs on multiple European countries as part of a push for U.S. control of Greenland. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 735 points, or 1.4%, while the S & P 500 declined 1.5%. The tech-heavy Nasdaq dropped 1.8%.

The "Sell America" trade compelled investors to dump U.S. stocks and bonds, while gold and silver, both safe haven assets, hit new highs.

While the party remains split as President Trump presses to “take” Greenland, some in his party are publicly embracing his reasoning for wanting to control the territory.

The heads of state of all 27 European Union nations will meet for an "extraordinary meeting" later this week, European council president Antonio Costa said on Sunday.
