Stocks rallied worldwide after President Donald Trump relaxed
some of his tariffs and as stress from within the U.S. bond
market seemed to ease.
The S&P 500 rose 0.8% Monday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average
also rose 0.8%, and the Nasdaq composite climbed 0.6%.
Apple and other technology stocks helped lift the market after
Trump temporarily exempted smartphones and other electronics
from some of his stiff tariffs. Ford and GM also rallied after
Trump said pauses for auto tariffs may be next. Perhaps more
importantly for Wall Street, the bond market showed signals of
increasing calm as Treasury yields eased.
On Monday:
The S&P 500 rose 42.61 points, or 0.8%, to 5,405.97.
