Trump took to his platform Truth Social late on Monday to threaten 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada if they don't better control their borders, and additional tariffs on China .

Asian investors suddenly raced to hit the sell button, sending the Mexican peso down more than 2% on the dollar at one point and Japan 's Nikkei almost 2% lower.

Most markets regained some composure by midday in Asia but pan-European STOXX 50 futures are still pointing down by about 1% .
