Stocks Surge as Trump Eases China Tariff Threats – Fed Rate-Cut Hopes Ignite Rally

U.S. stock futures roared higher Monday as traders seized on softer trade rhetoric. Trump had threatened on Friday “massive” new tariffs on China, briefly sparking the Nasdaq’s worst single-day drop in months investopedia.com. He warned of 100% levies and cutting a summit with China’s Xi Jinping, which sent Friday’s S&P 500 down 2.7% and Nasdaq down 3.6% investopedia.com. But over the weekend Trump posted on Truth Social that “it will all be fine” with China and the U.S. did not want to “hurt” its economy investopedia.com. This reprieve calmed markets.

In dollar terms, Wall Street lost on the order of $2 trillion in market capitalizationts2.tech. Analysts note this was the steepest one-day drop since the April flash crash, driven not by an earnings miss but by geopolitical flare-up. “This was not due to a banking panic or financial meltdown, but a 30-word tariff ultimatum,” said one strategist. Investors have been jittery for weeks: September delivered four straight monthly gains, fueled by AI hype and expectations of Fed rate cuts. But none expected so sudden an escalation.

  • United Spirits (NSE:UNITDSPR) Heads for Ex-Dividend Date in Three Days
    July 3, 2026, 10:55 PM EDT. Investors in United Spirits Limited (NSE:UNITDSPR) have three days left to buy the stock before it trades ex-dividend. To qualify for the ₹11 per share dividend, buyers need to own shares by July 8, with payment set for Sept. 3. The company paid out 71% of earnings as dividends last year, in line with many peers, but its free cash flow payout ratio was 99%, raising some questions on how long the dividend can keep up. Earnings have jumped at a 35% annual rate over five years, but the high cash outflow may put future dividends at risk. Shares are at ₹1393.30 and the trailing yield stands at 1.2%. Investors considering a purchase now should look at both the earnings growth and the risk to future dividends.
