Wall Street is taking President Donald Trump’s latest threat on
tariffs in stride, on the whole, and U.S. stock indexes rose.
The S&P 500 rose 0.7% Monday, coming off a losing week bookended
by worries about how potential tariffs could threaten the
economy. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.4%, and the
Nasdaq composite rose 1%.
Stocks of U.S. steel and aluminum producers jumped after Trump
said he will impose tariffs on all such imports. McDonald’s also
climbed on strength for its restaurants outside the United
States. Treasury yields held mostly steady in the bond market.
On Monday:
The S&P 500 rose 40.45 points, or 0.7%, to 6,066.44.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 167.01 points, or 0.4%, to
44,470.41.
The Nasdaq composite rose 190.87 points, or 1%, to 19,714.27.
The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies rose 8.23 points, or
0.4%, to 2,287.94.
For the year:
The S&P 500 is up 184.81 points, or 3.1%.
The Dow is up 1,926.19 points, or 4.5%.
