tariff on goods coming from the European Union.
The S&P 500 jumped 2% Tuesday. Its gains accelerated following a
better-than-expected report on U.S. consumer confidence. The Dow
Jones Industrial Average added 1.8%, and the Nasdaq composite
climbed 2.5%.

forces pushing the U.S. stock market higher. Treasury yields
eased in the bond market.
