Wall Street’s Major Indexes Jumped More Than 2%, H. K. Stocks Opened Lower


U.S. Stocks 

Fundamental Analysis: 

Wall Street’s major indexes jumped more than 2% on Tuesday, with investors buying growth giants and energy stocks after stocks tumbled last week on fears the global economy is in recession.

The market generally rallied, with all 11 major sectors of the S&P 500 rising, after the benchmark posted its biggest weekly percentage loss since March 2020. 

Investors are trying to assess how far stocks can fall and evaluate the risk the Fed’s aggressive rate hikes to curb high inflation could pose to the economy.  

Earlier this month, the S&P 500 fell more than 20% from its all-time high touched in January, confirming a bear market.  

By the close of trading, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 641.47 points, or 2.15%, at 30,530.25, while the S&P 500 was up 89.95 points, or 2.45%, at 3,764.79. The Nasdaq was up 270.95 points, or 2.51%, at 11,069.30.  

Energy stocks are the biggest gainer in the S&P 500 this year, jumping 5.1% after last week’s plunge. Every sector was up at least 1%. Giants such as Apple, Tesla and Microsoft all rose sharply, becoming the stocks that gave the S&P 500 the biggest boost. Apple rose 3.3 percent, Tesla Inc. jumped 9.4 percent and Microsoft rose 2.5 percent.
