- US stock indices fell on MondayTurning around last week's positive trend. Great seven technical supplies fell during the day. At the same time, investors received confused messages on potential trade agreements they had put on.
On Monday, US shares recovered late to finish a little higher.
Dow Jones rose by 106 points, while the S&P 500 finished basically flat, with a day of 0.14%. Meanwhile, in the afternoon, a technical heavy Nasdaq composite gathered, but ended slightly negatively, less than 0.01%.
At the beginning of the day, the indices had fallen lower when investors fell from some spectacular seven equipment. Like Apple, Meta, Microsoft and Amazon are preparing to announce their first set of income this week after President Donald Trump announced their tariff policy in early April, investors are in front of possible unfavorable news. Especially Apple is monitored closely, given that many of its products are manufactured in China, which have been captured by the steepest tariffs.
Mega Cap Tech shares are over -affected by the broader stock market. Just as they fed the US stocks to ensure high years of return, the stake on Monday led to Kadasis. Some of the spectaculars from the seven shares recovered from the lowest trading period earlier. Meta stopped 0.5% day, Apple rose 0.4% and Tesla rose 0.3% Microsoft was just under the hair where it started, ended Monday, ended with 0.2%, where it opened.
Some other technical stocks with a large name ended in the day. Amazon saw that the share price was 0.7% and Nvidia was 2.1%.
Monday's strange performance was a return of last week, which saw the recovery of the markets after they accepted when President Donald Trump announced his tariff policy. This week, investors are looking for the progress of the White House on trade transactions as signs that the economy is stabilizing.
However, investors received little news about possible trade agreements between the US and other countries. Without them, the US fears that tariffs will remain in the recession, as foreign trade may dry.
“Nowadays it is mostly talked about and we are skeptical that there is enough specific momentum in trade discussions to exclude the US recession,” wrote Jason Millar, Barclays Economist.
Investors receive constant messages from government officials about progress made by certain trade transactions. Early Monday morning, before the markets opened, the Treasury Secretary, Scott Bessent, said that the United States had held trade transactions with 18 countries. However, President Donald Trump claimed to have made 200 transactions over the weekend. On Sunday, Bessent explained that Trump was likely to refer to “Lower Deals in Negotiations”.
Bessent signaled that the first signed deal with India was signed.
The White House has also provided controversial views of China, the second largest economy and the country with the most escalated tensions. Both countries hit each other from 100% north of mutual tariffs, which has essentially closed trade between the two. Bessent hinted that the US had spoken to Chinese officials because the two economies had a lot of “many touch points”. Although Trump said that he and Chinese President Xi Jinping had also discussed the issue. Chinese Foreign Ministry denied Two leaders had spoken.
Investors want to find out if China and the US can find a common foundation for the markets.
“It is possible that investors have to see the White House last week's turning space towards China,” wrote Chris Larkin, Managing Director of E*Kaubandus.
At the end of this week, investors are keeping an eye on the main economic measures, including the first quarter of the US, in the GDP, ISM production study and the April job report, all of which provide information on the exact impact on Trump's tariffs on the economy.
