11:12Now PlayingWall Street traders cheering solid results from Nvidia Corp. had to face the harsh reality of slowing economic data and legal uncertainties around Donald Trump’s trade war. The president told Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell he’s making a mistake for not cutting rates.
The S&P 500 pared most of an advance that earlier approached 1%. A federal appeals court offered Trump a temporary reprieve from a ruling threatening to throw out the bulk of his tariff agenda. Treasuries rose on bets the Fed will slash rates twice this year and after a solid $44 billion sale of seven-year notes. The dollar fell.
The US economy shrank at the start of the year, restrained by weaker consumer spending and an even bigger impact from trade than initially reported. Pending sales of previously owned homes last month fell by the most since September 2022, while a rise in recurring jobless claims signaled higher unemployment.
The S&P 500 rose 0.4%. The Nasdaq 100 gained 0.2%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.3%.
Nvidia led gains in megacaps, up over 3%. Salesforce Inc. reported signs of traction in its new AI products, but that wasn’t enough to ease investor anxieties over a long trend of slowing revenue growth. United Airlines Holdings Inc. said Newark disruptions will cut into profits. The yield on 10-year Treasuries fell five basis points to 4.43%. A dollar gauge lost 0.4%.
