United Air, Microchip and others would suffer under a global trade war that dampened consumer confidence and curtailed spending. Delta Air Lines recently said it wouldn’t reaffirm its financial guidance for the full year, citing uncertainty caused by higher U.S. tariffs on imports.
Microchip Technology and rivals such as ON Semiconductor, which soared 21.8% from its lows of the day, have slumped since the market peaked in February, despite semiconductors being excluded from the tariff increases, hurt by concern that the economy would slow and demand for chips weaken.
In Wednesday’s historic afternoon rally, the S&P 500 soared as much as 10%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced more 3,100 points or about 8.1% while the Nasdaq Composite jumped as much as 12.7%, it’s second largest gain ever.
“The market’s move upward is violent, and speaks to how badly the market was looking for clarity” on tariff policy, said Chris Brigati, chief investment officer at investment firm SWBC. “It appears President Trump’s motivation to get trade counterparts to the negotiating table is bearing fruit and that is a constructive development for the ongoing trade war.”
