Dow rebounds from massive drop after US delays tariffs against Mexico

By Ariel Zilber | New York Post Stocks rebounded just before noon on Monday after taking a sharp dive at the start of trading following President Trump’s decision to impose new tariffs on key US trading partners including China, Canada and Mexico — only for him to delay the levies following a conversation with the Mexican leader. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, which dropped by as many as 560 points, recovered to around the break-even point as of 11:21 a.m. Eastern Time on Monday. The S&P 500, which had declined by as much as 1.6%, was only down 0.55%, or 33 points while the Nasdaq, which lost 1.95% to drop nearly 400 points after the opening bell, rebounded to 0.92%, which was down 172 points.

Record Thursday: Dow hits 40,000-point mark, all three indexes look set to extend record highs

By Martin Baccardax | The Street U.S. stocks nudged higher Thursday as investors looked to extend a springtime rally that has lifted all three major benchmarks to all-time highs following a muted inflation report and renewed bets that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates. The Dow Jones Industrial Average breached the 40,000-point mark for the first time on record, while also setting an all-time best for the time it took to rise 10,000 points. The Dow passed the 30,000 point mark on November 24, 2020, or 1,269 days ago. That's just inside the 1,442 days the Average took to climb from 20,000 points, which it hit on December 13, 2016.  READ THE FULL STORY AT THE STREET
