US EditionTrump's approval rating rises to 44%; Americans worry less about recession
- President Donald Trump's approval rating rose to 44% in a Reuters/Ipsos poll ended May 13, 2025, reflecting improved public sentiment.
- This increase followed weeks of tariff reductions with China and eased recession worries after previous sharp trade tensions and tariff hikes.
- Polls showed mixed approval figures between 44% and 48%, while concern about recession dropped to 69%, down from 76%; stock market fears also lessened.
- The S&P 500 index gained 17% from its low after tariff hikes, and 39% approved Trump's economic management, up from 36%, despite ongoing inflation concerns.
- These trends imply that Trump's recent trade policy adjustments helped ease economic fears and modestly boosted his approval amid an uncertain economic outlook.
