U.S. stocks rose again as stronger-than-expected profits keep
piling higher for companies, though CEOs say they’re unsure how
long that can last due to uncertainty around President Donald
Trump’s trade war.
The S&P 500 climbed 0.6% Tuesday, its sixth straight gain. The
Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.7%, and the Nasdaq
composite rose 0.5%.
UPS, General Motors and JetBlue Airways were part of a horde of
companies reporting better profits for the start of 2025 than
analysts expected. But uncertainty is high about how their
profits will fare the rest of the year amid Trump’s
on-again-off-again tariffs.
On Tuesday:
The S&P 500 rose 32.08 points, or 0.6%, to 5,560.83.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 300.03 points, or 0.7%, to
40,527.62.
The Nasdaq composite rose 95.18 points, or 0.5%, to 17,461.32.
The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies rose 10.97 points,
or 0.6%, to 1,976.52.
