The stock market kicked off the trading week in a bloodbath, erasing last week’s gains, with all major indices posting heavy losses following President Donald Trump’s confirmation that tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada are set to take effect on Tuesday.
The tech-heavy Nasdaq posted the biggest loss, down 2.64 percent, followed by S&P at 1.76 percent, and Dow Jones at 1.48 percent.
According to Trump, there was no room left for Mexico and Canada, and his 25-percent tariff for the two countries “will start.” He also signed an additional 10-percent tariff on goods from China.
Despite the market decline, ten companies bucked an overall pessimistic sentiment, making it to the top gainers list mainly due to bullish ratings and earnings performance, among others. In this article, we have detailed the reasons behind their gains.
