US futures fell amid Trump's threat to impose tariffs

US stock futures fell on Monday after President Donald Trump threatened new tariffs on eight European countries to force them to "buy up Greenland outright." The proposed measures target Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, the Netherlands, and Finland, with a 10% tariff scheduled to take effect on February 1st and rising to 25% in June unless an agreement is reached.
