Major US stock indexes rose moderately, as investors bought up shares of technological and industrial companies, which significantly lost in value at the previous session, after optimistic comments by Washington and Beijing, which somewhat eased concerns about a further escalation of the trade war.
US President Trump said on Monday that he would hold talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the G20 summit in late June. On Tuesday, the Chinese government announced that both sides agreed to continue discussions on trade disputes. These messages have brought some peace to the markets.
Shares of technology companies, which showed the biggest daily fall in the last four months at the previous session, rose appreciably (+ 1.4% in the moment), supporting the growth of a broader market. The growth drivers in this segment are Microsoft Corp., Apple Inc, as well as chip manufacturers, which suffered a lot on Monday, since most of their business is tied to China. Shares of the banking sector also significantly added to the cost.
Market participants also analyzed the report of the Ministry of Labor, which showed that import prices rose less-than-expected in April, as the rise in oil and food prices was constrained by the largest decline in prices for capital goods over the past 10 years .. According to the report, prices for imports rose 0.2% last month, after rising 0.6% in March. Economists had forecast that import prices would rise by 0.7% in April. On an annualized basis, import prices fell 0.2% after rising 0.1% in March. The report also showed that export prices rose 0.2% in April, after rising 0.6% in March.
Most of the components of DOW finished trading in positive territory (25 out of 30). The growth leader was Dow Inc. (DOW, + 3.00%). More than the rest of the shares fell UnitedHealth Group Inc. (UNH; -1.30%).
Almost all sectors of the S & P recorded an increase. The largest growth was shown by the conglomerate sector (+ 3.4%). Only the utilities sector declined (-0.5%).
At the time of closing:
Dow 25,532.05 +207.06 +0.82%
S & P 500 2,834.41 +22.54 +0.80%
Nasdaq 100 7,734.49 +87.47 +1.14%
