Those investments include mutual funds and exchange-traded funds. Essentially, those funds will have to buy the stock once it becomes part of the index that the fund is tracking or mimicking. Investors are depending more than ever on funds that simply mimic indexes such as the S&P 500. It's a lower-cost way to invest, allowing savers to keep more of their ...

Wall Street stocks drop as Trump ramps up tariffs, AI fears mount

US stocks are falling Monday after President Donald Trump took little time to ramp up his newest tariffs, and as investors continue to punish companies that could be losers in the artificial-intelligence revolution. The S&P 500 sank 0.8 per cent after Trump said on Saturday that he would place temporary 15 per cent tariffs on other countries.
