In a dramatic turn of events, Wall Street rallied to one of its largest single-day gains ever, following President Trump’s announcement of a 90-day suspension on tariffs. This came just hours after their implementation, which had initially roiled financial markets.

Data from FactSet underscored this as a record percentage increase for these indices since events in early 2020 and 2008.

Cautious Optimism Prevails

Despite the day’s enthusiasm, the indices remain below their peaks from late 2024. Analysts caution that it is premature to predict if the trend will continue beyond the 90-day pause.
