Positive Price Development on the New York Stock Exchanges
The New York stock exchanges showed a positive price development on Tuesday, June 3, 2025, after a cautious start. Market observers interpret this development as a sign of a possible stabilization of the markets, which is significant for investors in the German-speaking region.
Price Development of the Main Indices
- Dow Jones Industrial: The Dow Jones closed with an increase of about 0.50 to 0.51 percent at approximately 42,516 to 42,519 points.
- S&P 500: The broad-based S&P 500 rose by about 0.58 to 0.60 percent to about 5,970 to 5,971 points.
- Nasdaq 100: The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 gained about 0.79 to 0.85 percent, reaching about 21,663 to 21,675 points.
Influencing Factors
The positive price developments are supported, among other things, by robust data from the US labor market. These data have stabilized the markets despite the risks posed by the tariff policies of US President Donald Trump. The upcoming monthly labor market report from the government on Friday is regarded as an important indicator for future market development.
Additionally, the recently reignited international trade disputes seem to have hardly worried investors so far. However, there are hopes for future talks between the US and other countries to achieve trade agreements and prevent a recession in the US.
Significance for Investors in the German-Speaking Region
The stability of the US markets is of great importance for investors in the German-speaking region, as they often invest in global markets and are influenced by developments in the US. A stable US economy can have positive effects on European markets, especially on the DAX and EuroStoxx50, which also showed positive price developments.
