Asian shares mixed as Wall Street rally lifts US stocks to fresh records

Stock markets in Asia were mixed on Monday after US stocks rose to more records as they closed out another winning week. US futures and oil prices were higher ahead of trade talks in Stockholm between US and Chinese officials. European futures rose after the European Union forged a deal with the Trump administration calling for 15% tariffs on most exports to the US. The agreement announced after President Donald Trump and European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen met briefly at Trump's Turnberry golf course in Scotland staves off far higher import duties on both sides that might have sent shock waves through economies around the globe. Tokyo's Nikkei 225 index lost 1% to 41,056.81 after doubts surfaced over what exactly the trade truce between Japan and US President Donald Trump, especially the $550 billion pledge of investment in the US by Japan, will entail.

Wall Street drifts higher as oil prices jump, US manufacturing slumps

US stock indexes drifted closer to their records on Monday, coming off their stellar May, which was Wall Street's best month since 2023. The S&P 500 rose 0.4% after erasing an early loss from the morning. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 35 points, or 0.1%, and the Nasdaq composite climbed 0.7%. Indexes had been down close to 1% in the morning following some discouraging updates on US manufacturing. President Donald Trump has been warning that US businesses and households could feel some pain as he tries to use tariffs to bring more manufacturing jobs back to the country, and their on-and-off rollout has created lots of uncertainty. But stocks rallied back as the day progressed, and gains for a few influential stocks helped lift the S&P 500 even though more stocks within it fell than rose. Nvidia climbed 1.7%, and Meta Platforms rose 3.6%, for example. Some of Monday's strongest action was in the oil market, where the price of crude spurted more than 3%. The countries in

Wall Street tumbles as S&P 500 slides 2% on signs of US slowdown

A discouraging report suggesting the US economy may have shrunk at the start of the year, before most of President Donald Trump's announced tariffs could take effect, is knocking US stocks lower on Wednesday. The S&P 500 was down 2% in morning trading and on track to break a six-day winning streak. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 702 points, or 1.7%, as of 9:55 am Eastern time, and sharp drops for such AI superstars as Super Micro Computer had the Nasdaq composite falling a market-leading 2.5%. The weaker-than-expected report on the US economy surprised financial markets because economists were expecting to see modest growth, particularly after the economy closed last year running at a solid pace. But importers rushed to bring products into the country before tariffs could raise their prices, which helped drag on the country's overall gross domestic product. Such data raises the threat of a worst-case scenario called stagflation, one where the economy's growth stagnates .
