Market Performance: The S&P 500, Dow Jones, and Nasdaq indices closed higher on Monday, supported by a broad rally despite some weakness in major tech stocks. Positive retail sales data eased concerns about consumer spending, while geopolitical tensions and recent tariff announcements continue to pressure the market.
Stock Movements: Chip stocks like Intel and AMD saw significant gains, while major tech companies such as Nvidia and Tesla experienced declines. Upcoming economic reports and the Federal Reserve's meeting are expected to influence market direction this week.
