E-Mini Dow
While Trump did not announce widespread tariffs, he has ordered a review US trade deals, in a possible step toward the border taxes as well as threatening Canada and Mexico with 25% from 1 February.
The International Monetary Fund and analysts have warned that Trump policies threaten a significant disruption of global trade that could eventually backfire on the US.
The dollar, which had fallen on Monday after the inauguration, swung up and down against some other major currencies, including the pound and the euro, as uncertainty lingered about what policies might become reality.

E-Mini S&P500
Vistra, a top performer in 2024, led the index higher with a gain of about 10%. NRG Energy and Prologis followed, with each up more than 7.5%.
Still, some underperformers restricted gains. With a slide of nearly 12%, Walgreens Boots Alliance which was a big loser last year, was the worst performer in the index on Tuesday. Well-known stocks including Apple Booking Holdings and Expedia were also among the biggest laggards in the session.
E-Mini Nasdaq
The Nasdaq Composite rose 0.64% to 19,756.78.
Several big technology stocks also took a leg up, with Amazon and Nvidia each gaining more than 2%. But a drop of more than 3% in Apple on the back of two Wall Street downgrades restricted gains for the tech-heavy Nasdaq.
