Nasdaq leads as US stocks post moderate gains

Forex Short News

The momentum of the past two days of trading didn’t entire fade but it was slower going after a poor US consumer confidence report and as we stumble one day closer to Trump’s April 2 “liberation day”.

  • S&P 500 +0.15%
  • Nasdaq Comp +0.5%
  • DJIA flat
  • Russell 2000 -0.5%
  • Toronto TSX Comp +0.2%

I take some positive indications from Trump’s late day comments that Mexico and Canada “have done a lot” as a sign that tariff levels on that pair will be low on April 2 but I don’t think anyone wants to make any bets this late in the game.
