Here are the best-performing U.S. stocks in Monday’s rally


Whether you’re a fund manager or the president of the United States, a December stock rally is a wonderful thing. Many money managers have incentives tied to “locking in gains” before the end of the year, and of course President Trump wants all the bragging rights he can get.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +1.14%  was up 432 points (1.7%) in the first few minutes of trading Monday, while the S&P 500 SPX, +1.05%  rose 1.4% and the Nasdaq Composite Index COMP, +1.41%  jumped 2% after Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping agreed to get serious about trade negotiations.

Dow sinks nearly 700 points as U.S.-China trade, falling 10-year yield spook investors

U.S. stocks accelerated losses Tuesday afternoon as skepticism over the significance of an agreement reached by the U.S. and China to postpone new tariffs mounted and as the market digested a flattening yield curve in U.S. government debt.

How are the benchmarks faring?
The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -2.64% skidded 552 points, or 2.1%, to 25,268, while the S&P 500 index SPX, -2.61% dropped 61 points, or 2.2%, to 2,728. The Nasdaq Composite Index COMP, -3.01%  tumbled 200 points, or 2.7%, to 7,243.

What’s driving the market?
Skepticism surrounding the U.S. and China’s ability to achieve a concrete deal to avoid new, or expanded, bilateral tariffs is rising, as investors focused on the lack of specific concessions made by China at last weekend’s G-20 meeting in Argentina where President Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping met.

Dow tumbles nearly 800 points as Tuesday losses gain steam; 10-year yield hits 2.88%

The Dow Jones Industrial Average and the broader stock market on Tuesday skidded sharply lower in late-afternoon trade, relinquishing all of Monday's post-G-20 rally--and then some. The Dow DJIA, -3.10% was down 782 points, or 3.1%, at 25,047. The S&P 500 index SPX, -3.24% was off 3.2% at 2,701, while the Nasdaq Composite Index COMP, -3.80% retreated 3.8% at 7,162. A day ago, the stock market climbed with risk appetite as President Donald Trump and China's leader Xi Jinping forged a momentary pause in trade hostilities at the sidelines of the Group of 20 summit in Argentina. However, investors have grown doubtful that a real deal in the long-run is possible.

The sell-off started with a mysterious plunge overnight that caused the exchange to halt futures

The stock market sell-off on Thursday began with a mysterious overnight plunge in equity futures that caused the CME Group to halt trading in several intervals.

When futures opened for trading at 6 p.m. ET on Wednesday, the eMini S&P 500 futures fell as low as 1.8 percent in a sudden move on above average volume.

The CME Group said it had to intervene with multiple 10-second pauses to prevent a steeper decline in the equity future.
