Overview
In a strong market rebound, Wall Street experienced significant gains, with the Dow surging nearly 600 points and the S&P 500 rising 1.8%. This optimism followed President Trump's suggestion of potential modifications to tariffs, including new 25% tariffs on countries buying Venezuelan oil and gas. Despite these positive movements, the S&P remains nearly 4% down in the past month, reflecting ongoing volatility. Meanwhile, emerging markets faced challenges, with the Indonesian rupiah hitting its lowest level since 1998, and Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index dropping over 2%, highlighting a mixed global economic landscape.
