#MarketRebound The global financial market experienced a significant recovery on April 9, 2025, driven by the announcement from former U.S. President Donald Trump of a 90-day pause on the implementation of new tariffs for most countries, except China.
Performance of Major Indices:
• S&P 500: Recorded an increase of 9.5%, marking its largest daily gain since 2008.
• Dow Jones Industrial Average: Rose by 7.9%, adding nearly 3,000 points.
• Nasdaq Composite: Saw a jump of 12.2%, representing its best daily performance since 2001.
Impact on Sectors:
The technology sector led the recovery, with Apple standing out, as its shares rose over 12% after facing one of the worst declines in four days since 2000.
International Reactions:
• European Union: Decided to postpone planned retaliatory tariffs against the U.S., interpreting the pause as an opportunity for negotiations.
• China: Despite being excluded from the tariff pause and the increase of tariffs to 125% on its products, expressed willingness to engage in dialogue, although it raised its own tariffs on American products to 84%.
Final Considerations:
Although the pause on tariffs provided temporary relief and boosted the markets, analysts warn that volatility may continue due to uncertainties in international trade relations.
