How major US stock indexes fared Tuesday, 3/25/2025

Wall Street followed up one of its best days of the last year with a quiet performance.

The S&P 500 rose 0.2% Tuesday after jumping 1.8% Monday on hopes that President Donald Trump’s tariffs may not be as sweeping as feared. The Dow Jones Industrial Average edged barely higher, and the Nasdaq composite added 0.5%.

Trump Media & Technology Group jumped to one of the market’s bigger gains after announcing a deal to offer “America First” investment funds. But signs are piling up that Trump’s tariffs are making U.S. consumers more worried about the economy’s future.
