Wall Street kept calm after the Supreme Court struck down President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs, and stocks ticked higher.
The S&P 500 added 0.7 percent Friday. It had been flipping between small gains and losses before the court’s ruling, following discouraging reports showing slowing growth for the U.S. economy and faster inflation.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.5 percent, and the Nasdaq composite rose 0.9 percent.
Trading was tentative across markets after the ruling and after Trump pledged to put tariffs on other countries using other avenues. Treasury yields largely held steady in the bond market.
