Visa stock slides nearly 5% as Trump’s credit-card rate cap plan hits payment networks
Visa shares fell 4.5% to $327.90 Tuesday after President Donald Trump proposed a one-year 10% cap on credit-card interest rates. Mastercard dropped 3.8%. The move sparked concerns about new regulation and its impact on the payments sector ahead of Visa’s shareholder meeting and earnings report later this month. Average U.S. credit card rates stood at 20.97% in November, according to Federal Reserve data.
