Stocks rose Monday as major tech names outperformed to start the week, while traders looked past the latest U.S. tariff threat from President Donald Trump.
The market remains jittery on a mix of inflation worry coupled with concern over how Trump’s plan for tariffs could adversely affect the U.S. economy.
Trump told reporters on Sunday that he’s planning to announce a blanket 25% tariff on all steel and aluminum imports on Monday. Trump did not specify when the tariffs would be imposed and noted that he would also issue retaliatory tariffs on countries that tax U.S. imports. The news comes after Trump’s previously announced duties on China.
Steel and aluminum stocks popped. U.S. Steel and Nucor were up more than 3.5% and 5.5%, respectively. Cleveland-Cliffs climbed more than 17%, and Alcoa traded 3% higher.
Shares of chipmakers also traded higher as sentiment appeared to improve after the late January sell-off in technology stocks, fueled by the concerns around the emergence of Chinese AI startup DeepSeek. Nvidia gained 3.5%, while Broadcom and Micron rose by 4.5% and roughly 4%, respectively. Megacap tech names Alphabet, Amazon and Microsoft were also each higher.
“The volatility around DeepSeek and concerns over tariffs do not derail our positive outlook on risk assets, especially in the U.S. Over the short term, we expect lingering volatility on tariff headlines and potential April bill passage in the U.S., but we keep 6,500 as S&P 500 year-end target,” JPMorgan head of cross asset strategy Fabio Bassi said in a note to clients.
The threat of more tariffs comes ahead of a slew of economic data this week. The January consumer price index report is due out Wednesday at 8:30 a.m. ET, followed by initial weekly jobless claims and the producer price index on Thursday. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell will also speak before Congress on Tuesday morning.
Correction: A previous version misstated when Powell is scheduled to speak.
The stock market today is showing mixed results as investors continue to weigh concerns about inflation and rising interest rates. Follow along for live updates on the latest happenings in the market:
– The S&P 500 is up 0.2% in early trading, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average is down 0.1%.

– Energy stocks are under pressure as oil prices continue to fluctuate.
– Investors are keeping a close eye on the latest economic data, including jobless claims and consumer spending numbers.
– The Federal Reserve’s upcoming meeting is also in focus, with investors looking for clues on the central bank’s plans for interest rates.

Brock Purdy ended up throwing for a single-season franchise record 4,280 passing yards in 2023, but this season was far more underwhelming as the 49ers missed the playoffs.
The quarterback is now entering the final year of his rookie deal and looks set to become the highest-paid player in franchise history after Dak Prescott’s contract extension in September further inflated the market.
In a special crossover episode between “The Athletic Football Show” and “Scoop City”, Robert Mays and Dianna Russini discussed Purdy’s looming contract situation.
A partial transcript has been edited for clarity and length. The full episode is available in “The Athletic Football Show” feed on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
Dianna: I think there are some concerns from some people that this isn’t going to get done. And I don’t know if that’s because they’re not sure what that number is going to be or perhaps maybe the 49ers want to flirt with Kirk Cousins. But from everything I know, both sides are very committed to getting this deal done. I think they’re going to begin working on this very soon. This isn’t something they’re going to be pushing off or that we’re going to be discussing during training camp. I think this is something that they’re both in line with. Let’s get the ball rolling on this and figure out where we are going to land on a number. ‘Is Brock Purdy going to reset the market?’, is the question. Is that the (Dak) number his agent’s going to ask for? And is that going to be a number that the 49ers (are) going to be willing to pay?
Robert: I think it’s twofold. I think that number and the years are probably a consideration too. Dak walks into that negotiation with the Cowboys with the most leverage you can have if you are not one of the three best quarterbacks in the league. If you are not a Josh Allen or Patrick Mahomes-type quarterback, which Dak Prescott is not, I think he walked into that discussion with Dallas with the most leverage you could have in that tier of quarterbacks. I don’t think Brock Purdy is there. Even at a very simple level if this doesn’t work out and maybe he plays out his lame duck year, they can franchise tag him if they want to. There are so many more levers as part of the Brock Purdy discussion than there were with Dallas and Dak. If I’m Purdy’s people and I walk into this, I don’t think I would accept a dollar less than what Jordan Love and Trevor Lawrence got. But I think a markup on that sort of deal and that tier of deal makes more sense to me than giving him $62 million a year.
Dianna: Correct. Now my concern or question for how this is going to work out is, ‘how much are they going to be willing to sort of work together so they can keep this roster?’ We’ve seen quarterbacks in the past give not a team-friendly deal, but something fair for the 49ers to have some movement.
Robert: I think it’s about structure more than final numbers. And the 49ers have always been very good with this, they do tons of stuff where they’re creative with the cap. The example I can remember quarterback specific (is) how that Jimmy G (Garoppolo) deal was structured where it was super front-loaded because they had no players on the team. So they gave him a ton of money in year one and as they started to add talent he got cheaper over the life of that deal. That won’t happen here obviously because they have a very expensive roster. But I think the 49ers have shown an ability to be creative.
Dianna: You bring up Jimmy G… Jimmy had Don Yee as an agent, right? Tons of experience, and he has a bunch of big-name coaches as well. He’s been around forever, obviously was Tom Brady’s agent (and) he reps Sean Payton. Brock (Purdy) has a younger agent, a newer agent so to speak. He’s been doing it for a while, but he doesn’t have a lot of big-name clients yet and this would definitely be his biggest deal. So I wonder how that factors into it because you have professional gains here for him as an agent to try to get his client the most money he possibly can. So, he can continue to show the players around the league, ‘Look what I can do for you.’ How do you think Drew Rosenhaus started? So I’m interested to see how the negotiations will go.
Robert: Even if they don’t want to reset the market, do you feel the 49ers are comfortable paying him that $55 to $60 million range?
Dianna: Yeah, I think that’s going to be the number that they wind up sitting at. I think the agent is going to try to get more but they’ll wind up settling in that area. Let’s make it clear though, I don’t think Brock Purdy’s sitting there going, ‘I’m demanding I want to be the highest-paid quarterback.’ I think for Brock Purdy if it was up to him he’d probably make a little bit more than he is now as long as he can drive his Toyota. I don’t think this is the type of player that’s in this to be the richest man in football. I think he just wants to be paid what he’s worth and continue to try to improve it and get them a Super Bowl.

Brock Purdy, the star quarterback for Iowa State, has been making waves in the college football world with his exceptional play and leadership on the field. With his impressive stats and performances, many are starting to wonder if he is going to reset the market for quarterback contracts in the NFL.
Purdy’s talent and potential have caught the attention of NFL scouts and analysts, who see him as a top prospect for the upcoming draft. If he continues to excel and improve his game, he could potentially become one of the highest-paid players in the league.
Many are already comparing Purdy to some of the top quarterbacks in the NFL, such as Patrick Mahomes and Aaron Rodgers, due to his ability to make big plays and lead his team to victory. If he can continue to showcase his skills and prove himself at the next level, there is no doubt that he has the potential to reset the market for quarterback contracts.
Only time will tell if Purdy can live up to the hype and become a game-changer in the NFL. But one thing is for sure – he is definitely a player to keep an eye on as he continues to rise through the ranks of college football.
My top 10 things to watch Thursday, Feb. 6 1. Wall Street was looking at a mixed open. The Dow, the S & P 500, and the Nasdaq all put together back-to-back gains ahead of Thursday evening’s quarterly earnings report from Club name Amazon and Friday morning’s big government jobs report. 2. Club name Honeywell announced its expected split into three divisions — automation, aerospace and advanced materials — following activist investor pressure. However, guidance was light as always. But what else is new? The stock fell 3%. 3. Skyworks , a maker of chips for wireless devices, loses sole source Apple business to what many analysts believe is Club name Broadcom , which will now share it. Liam Griffin out as Skyworks CEO. Many analysts cut their price targets as Skyworks shares plunged more than 25% on all the news. 4. Broadcom on Thursday rose modestly on the Skyworks speculation, looking to extend its winning streak to three sessions. Club stock Nvidia was also working a three-day win streak as big tech companies continue to plan big AI investments. Both chipmakers are still below where they were before getting slammed by last week’s DeepSeek news. 5. Qualcomm , another semiconductor name, said it benefits from claims of a more efficient and lower-cost AI model from Chinese startup DeepSeek. So, no one is hurt by this business-wise? We know the stocks were hurt. 6. Arm Holdings delivered a very strong quarter but it did not guide up, so people are shooting it down. The chip designer stock dropped more than 4.5%. 7. Citi cut its Stanley Black & Decker price target to $118 per share from $135. The former Club name missed the quarter as we reported Wednesday. It’s much better to own Home Depot for exposure to what we expected to be a bounce back on housing without as much tariff risk. 8. Eli Lilly gave fiscal 2025 profit guidance that is in line with what analysts were expecting. Shares of the drugmaker rose 1% on mixed results that were consistent with its preannouncement in January. 9. Bristol-Myers Squibb posted beats on the top and bottom lines, but its full-year revenue guidance fell short of Wall Street’s expectations. Shares fell 6%. The Revlimid shortfall is known. If you didn’t know this you didn’t do the homework at JPMorgan’s health-care conference. I will tell Club members to buy it aggressively because we knew this shortfall was coming. You are getting a chance to buy this with schizophrenia drug Cobenfy coming on. 10. Ford giving you 15 cent special dividend, but make it clear that it is the biggest loser from the tariffs. Questions why the Japanese are immune from them. Sounds like it was making progress on warranties but still losing fortunes on electric cars. Ford did beat earnings estimates, but issues weak 2025 guidance, tanking shares more than 5%.

Stock futures rose Monday night after U.S. President Donald Trump paused planned tariffs on goods from Canada, just hours after a reprieve was also announced on planned tariffs against Mexico.
A flurry of recent announcements around Trump’s long-awaited tariff plans have put investors on edge.
Stocks are coming off of a volatile trading session, in which the major averages made a striking turnaround after an initial global sell-off. At its session low on Monday, the 30-stock Dow fell more than 600 points, or nearly 1.5%, after Trump signed an order over the weekend to impose 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada, plus a 10% levy on China. Investor sentiment turned around on Monday afternoon, however, after Trump said his duty on Mexican goods would be would be paused for one month.
Ultimately, the major averages ended Monday well off their lows of the day, but they still booked losses. The Dow slipped 0.28%, while the S&P 500 fell 0.76%. The Nasdaq Composite dropped 1.2%.
“We are in a bull market fueled by a strong U.S. consumer and rising corporate profitability. Until something cracks with this narrative, I believe dips are buyable,” said Ross Mayfield, investment strategist at Baird. “Investors should prepare for more market volatility related to trade uncertainty, but we think the overall backdrop for investors remains quite solid.”
Mayfield said he thinks that China tariffs will likely remain in place as they did during the first Trump administration, but this time around, the White House views “trade as a means to exert non-trade concessions.”
Elsewhere, a huge earnings week awaits investors. Alphabet, Merck and PepsiCo are on the docket for Tuesday. Amazon and Eli Lilly are among the names that will report later this week.
On the economic front, the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey for December is due on Tuesday, as well as durable orders. The main event this week will be Friday’s January nonfarm payrolls report, which will add further clarity to the employment picture.
