US EditionHow the S&P 500 recovered all of its losses for the year
- The S&P 500 recovered all losses for 2025 this week after rallying 5.3% following a 15% drop earlier in the year amid tariff tensions.
- The recovery followed President Trump's April 2 announcement of sweeping tariffs on most trade partners, especially China, which spiked duties to 145% and triggered Beijing's 125% retaliation.
- Markets rebounded with a 9.5% surge on April 9 after Trump paused most tariffs for 90 days, excluding those on China, while companies reported stronger profits despite profit forecast cuts amid uncertainty.
- In April, the labor market expanded by 177,000 positions despite declining consumer confidence and a weaker U.S. Dollar, while approximately 75% of S&P 500 firms exceeded profit forecasts, achieving growth close to 13.6%, according to FactSet.
- Analysts and Louis Wong of Phillip Securities advised ongoing caution due to persistent tariffs, paused but not eliminated, with risks that stocks may fall again amid unresolved trade disputes.
