U.S. stocks jumped in a widespread rally and more than made up
for their sharp drops from the day before.
The S&P 500 rose 2.5% Tuesday to erase Monday’s loss, which came
on worries about President Donald Trump’s trade war and his
attacks on the head of the Federal Reserve. The Dow Jones
Industrial Average rose 2.7%, and the Nasdaq composite climbed
2.7%.
Equifax, 3M and other companies reporting better profits than
analysts expected helped lead the way. The value of the U.S.
dollar also stabilized after sliding against the euro and other
competitors, while Treasury yields held steadier in the bond
market.
On Tuesday:
The S&P 500 rose 129.56 points, or 2.5%, to 5,287.76.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 1,016.57 points, or 2.7%,
to 39,186.98.
The Nasdaq composite rose 429.52 points, or 2.7%, to 16,300.42.
The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies rose 49.96 points,
or 2.7%, to 1,890.28.
