From Nasdaq: 2025-04-07 16:16:00

Stocks experienced substantial volatility on Monday, with the Nasdaq rising slightly, the S&P 500 dipping, and the Dow sliding. Concerns over Trump’s tariffs initially led to a sell-off, but selling pressure eased as traders picked up stocks at reduced levels. The S&P 500 briefly entered bear market territory before rebounding on news of a potential tariff pause by Trump. However, uncertainty remains high as Trump threatens further tariffs and negotiation terminations with China. Housing and commercial real estate stocks fell, while semiconductor and computer hardware stocks rallied. Global markets also saw significant declines.
