Tariff Relief a Positive Catalyst

| Gerelyn Terzo

Signs that the worst of the trade wars could be behind are a positive catalyst in today’s market. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent commented that he expects a “de-escalation” in the tariff tensions between the U.S. and China, calling the retaliatory moves by both Washington, D.C. and Beijing unsustainable.

Stocks are holding steady, with the Nasdaq Composite now leading the markets higher with a 2% advance. The S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average are up about 1.8% each.

Stock market movers include:

Manufacturing company 3M (NYSE: MMM) is up 7.3% on expectations for protection from tariffs owing to its network of factories.

Northrup Grumman (NYSE: NOC) is losing 14.7% after industry peer RTX cautioned that the tariffs would eat into its profits in 2025.

The markets are holding onto gains today, with all three of the major stock market indices trading decidedly higher. With each of the Mag 7 stocks rising, the Nasdaq Composite has extended its gains to nearly 2% on the day while the Dow Jones Industrial Average tacks on over 600 points.

Whether or not the stock market has seen its bottom is unclear, with some Wall Street analysts predicting that there is more selling to come. For today, the markets are finding enough positive catalysts to retake lost ground. We’ll see if it lasts.

Cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase (Nasdaq: COIN) is climbing 6.5% higher on the day as the bitcoin prices retakes the $90,000 level, beginning to live up to its name as a hedge in an uncertain economy.
