Wendy's Weekly STOCK MARKET Report "Wall Street enjoyed another solid week of gains," by Wendy Nelson,
Market Week: May 27, 2025
The Markets (as of market close May 23, 2025)
Stocks tumbled last week as traders contemplated the potential impact of new legislation and increased trade tensions following President Trump's threat of new tariffs against the European Union and Apple. While stocks declined, long-term bond yields rose, with 10-year Treasuries reaching a three-month high of 4.64% last Thursday before settling at 4.51% by the end of the week. Crude oil prices recorded their first weekly loss in May, affected by expectations of another production increase by OPEC+. New tariffs also impacted the dollar index, which fell to its lowest level in two weeks. As investors shifted away from risk, gold prices rose higher.
