President Trump Brings Uncertainty to the US Market
After a brief pullback last week, the S&P 500 started this week on a stronger note by surging to eight-week high price levels on Monday. Carrying forward the strength, the S&P 500 opened higher on May 22, lost strength, and declined as the day progressed. On May 22, seven out of 11 major S&P 500 sectors closed the day lower. Weakness in the industrials, energy, and materials sectors pushed the market lower. Strength in the financials and utilities sectors limited the market losses.
