US stocks jump as trading partners rush to negotiate with Trump on tariffs


US stocks jumped Tuesday morning after a massive, multi-day rout as nations overseas rushed to negotiate with President Trump on his stiff series of “reciprocal” tariffs.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 1,238 points, or 3.2%, after losing more than 3,500 points since Wednesday as investors panicked over Trump’s “Liberation Day” taxes, which economists have warned could reheat inflation and even trigger a recession.

The S&P 500 rose 3.3%, and Nasdaq 100 futures jumped 3.6% following reports of negotiations across multiple countries and possible concessions from major trade partners
