U.S. stocks climbed in early trading on Monday, reversing deep losses in a matter of minutes after President Donald Trump signaled a willingness to negotiate tariffs with U.S. trade partners.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 470 points, or 1.2%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq rose 2.5%. The S&P 500 gained 1.8%.

"Countries from all over the World are talking to us," Trump said on Truth Social. "Tough but fair parameters are being set."

The market gains recovered some losses that stretch back to Trump's announcement of far-reaching tariffs last week. The Dow suffered its worst week since 2020, and the Nasdaq ended last week in a bear market.

Not up at all. Somebody is smoking dope. If that’s a climb, we are in trouble.

S&P 500 spiked briefly this morning on the rumor that Trump was considering a 90-day pause in tariffs. But Trump is now calling that Fake News and the S&P 500 is back down.

It’s down about 1.2% again.

Volatile.

Looking like a dead cat bounce earlier.

Hopefully today is the end of it.

there was fake news fr Reuters that Hassett said POTUS was considering a 90—day pause- which was untrue and denied by the WH. so the rally faded.

It’s down. It’s up. It’s back down. It’s up gain. I think that they are feeling for the bottom and many believe they have found it.

Folks, remember a certain line from the movie Patton...

Doubters should have read Trump's book.

Now the S&P 500 is back up (breaking even with market close Friday) on the rumor that the EU is now seeking tariff zero. LOL

That was wild.
Varney reported that another network went with an unconfirmed report that there was going to be a 90 day pause in tariffs. And the market was off to the races.

Whew, all the dire forecasts of another “Black Monday” and a 10% drop had me rattled. But I saw all the news about country after country contacting the USA to negotiate and felt some relief.

I’m still convinced that Trump’s policies are going to bring millions of high-paying jobs to the USA and unleash a huge economic boom.

About $5 trillion of investment in the USA has been pledged so far. Each billion of investment creates 1,000 to 10,000 good, high-paying jobs depending on the industry. These are REAL jobs that produce things, not the phony government “jobs” that steal our wealth, strangle us in red tape, and prevent us from rising to greatness.

Sure, never mind a 2,250 climb and what that means. Have another toke.
