U.S. STOCKS REBOUND, STILL POST WORST QUARTER SINCE 2022
U.S. Stocks rebounded on Monday and the S&P 500 .SPX ended green, after it and the Nasdaq Composite .IXIC earlier reached their lowest levels since September, with traders waiting on U.S. President Donald Trump’s Wednesday announcement on reciprocal tariffs.
The improved risk sentiment failed to offset a sour quarter, which saw the Nasdaq and S&P 500 posting their worst quarterly drop since the second and third quarter of 2022, respectively.
On a monthly basis the Nasdaq and S&P 500 both posted their worst loss since December 2022. The Nasdaq has fallen 14.3% from its record closing high, while the S&P 500 is down 8.7%.
Uncertainty over what tariffs Trump will announce and whether they will be long lasting or subject to negotiation has added to risk aversion, with the trade levies expected to dent growth and increase inflation.
Bloomberg News on Monday reported that Wednesday’s announcement will focus on country-based tariffs, with sector-based levies to be announced later. Trump said on Sunday that tariffs will include all nations, not just a smaller group of 10 to 15 countries with the biggest trade imbalances.
Here is Monday’s closing market snapshot:
