US stocks add to weekly gains amid trade deal optimism
- On Friday, Wall Street experienced gains that extended the positive momentum seen throughout the week, with the Dow increasing by 0.8 percent and the S&P 500 rising 0.7 percent in New York and other key markets.
- The gains followed the United States and China announcing a 90-day tariff cut to allow trade talks, which eased tensions after recent tariff increases from US President Donald Trump.
- Investors awaited updates from the US president regarding developments in trade negotiations while paying little attention to disappointing consumer sentiment figures that highlighted a gloomy economic outlook and rising inflation worries.
- Shares of Take-Two Interactive dropped by 2.4 percent following the announcement of $3.55 billion in one-off expenses related to postponing the release of its new Grand Theft Auto game to May 2026, while Alibaba's stock declined more than six percent amid weak consumer demand in China.
- The rise in equities suggests market relief from easing trade tensions and hopes for more deals, although significant tariffs and domestic policy uncertainties remain.
