37 percent of voters say Trump's tweets hurt the stock market

Thirty-seven percent of voters said President Trump's tweets have a negative impact on the stock market, according to a new American Barometer survey.

The poll found that 21 percent of voters said the tweets have no effect on the stock market, while 19 percent said Trump's Twitter comments have a mostly negative effect but some positive effect.

Thirteen percent said the tweets had a mostly positive impact mixed with some negative effects, with 9 percent saying the tweets have a positive effect on the stock market.

The survey results come about a week after Trump tweeted that he could raise tariffs on China if it did not agree to overhaul its trade practices.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed down almost 800 points and the S&P 500 dropped more than 3 percent following the tweets.
