US EditionStocks are wavering on Wall Street and holding on to gains they made earlier in the week
- Stocks on Wall Street edged higher on Wednesday, adding to gains made earlier in the week amid a 90-day trade cease-fire between the U.S. And China.
- This rally followed an unusual trade truce and better-than-expected earnings reports despite widespread cuts in earnings growth forecasts and ongoing economic slowing.
- Investors awaited key data releases, including Tuesday's consumer price index and Thursday's retail sales and wholesale inflation reports, while Treasury yields rose modestly reflecting Federal Reserve outlooks.
- The S&P 500 erased all 2025 losses and rose about 0.2%, while the Dow and Nasdaq also gained slightly amid mixed global market performance and a cautious economic outlook.
- Despite relief from the trade cease-fire, uncertainty around tariffs, inflation, and slowing growth left many companies withdrawing forecasts and consumers hesitant, implying cautious market conditions.
