Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq steady as Trump says he won't extend August 1 tariff deadline
US stocks were little changed on Tuesday as Wall Street weighed President Trump's threat of stiff tariffs on key trading partners against his three-week reprieve on the return of sweeping "Liberation Day" duties. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) hovered near the flatlne, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) was down 0.1% at last check. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) rose slightly, on the heels of a losing start to the week for the major gauges. Stocks are treading water as markets search for the positive in Trump's latest trade policy shifts. He has moved his July 9 deadline for the resumption of "reciprocal" tariff rates to Aug. 1, giving countries three extra weeks to negotiate trade deals with the US. On Tuesday morning, Trump said there would be no extension beyond the Aug. 1 deadline, when countries are expected to begin paying tariffs, as his administration continues sending letters to foreign officials notifying them of the rates on imported goods. His comments come amid investor speculation that Trump might once again delay the timeline in what has been dubbed the "TACO" trade — the idea that "Trump always chickens out," or that he will eventually dial back on his trade threats. Read more: The latest on Trump's tariffs Stock benchmarks in Japan and South Korea closed higher on Tuesday, despite Trump's threat to start imposing 25% duties on imports from those countries in August. Another 12 US trading partners received letters laying out tariffs of up to 40% on Monday, with Malaysia, South Africa, and Indonesia among them. In corporate news, Amazon (AMZN) shares slid around 2% as its Prime Day deals kicked off. The e-commerce giant has extended the event to four days this year, with investors on watch for signs that tariff costs are pushing up price tags. Elsewhere, Wall Street expects a quiet week in terms of economic releases and earnings. Minutes from the Federal Reserve's June meeting are due on Wednesday, while Delta's (DAL) results on Thursday signal the return of earnings season. Uber (UBER) shares briefly touched another intraday record on Tuesday before retreating. The stock was down more than 1% by mid-session on Tuesday. Shares of the ride-hailing company have been on a tear this year, gaining more than 60% and closing at an all-time high on Monday. Tesla's (TSLA) muted response to its robotaxis event in Texas two weeks ago could be helping the stock. Uber and Alphabet's (GOOG, GOOGL) Waymo have expanded their partnership to offer autonomous ride hailing services in Atlanta and Austin. President Trump said there will be no extension beyond the Aug. 1 deadline, when countries are expected to begin paying tariffs, as his administration continues sending letters to foreign officials notifying them of the new import duties. "As per letters sent to various countries yesterday, in addition to letters that will be sent today, tomorrow, and for the next short period of time, TARIFFS WILL START BEING PAID ON AUGUST 1, 2025. There has been no change to this date, and there will be no change," wrote Trump on social media. "In other words, all money will be due and payable starting AUGUST 1, 2025 - No extensions will be granted," he added. His comments come amid investor speculation that Trump might once again delay the timeline, following a previous pause days after April's Liberation Day, when he announced a broad reciprocal tariff plan targeting US trading partners. Circle (CRCL) shares dipped as much as 4% before paring losses on Tuesday after a Wall Street analyst flagged growing risks from rising competition and looming interest-rate cuts that could take a bite out of the stablecoin issuer's revenue. The stock has surged more than 500% since Circle's public debut last month at $31 per share, buoyed by optimism around the broader adoption of asset-backed digital tokens. But Mizuho analysts pushed back on the bullish outlook, initiating coverage with an Underperform rating and a $85 price target, compared with its recent levels above $200 a share. Circle makes much of its money from interest income — specifically from the short-term treasury bills that underpin its stablecoin, USDC. "We believe consensus does not fully account for looming interest rate cuts, and also overstates USDC's medium-term growth potential," wrote Mizuho managing director Dan Dolev and his team. Dolev also pointed to rising distribution costs as Circle shares a portion of its reserve income partners like Coinbase (COIN). The analysts also pointed out last months' passage of the GENIUS Act, legislation aimed at creating regulatory guardrails for the industry, could be the catalyst that brings competing stablecoins to the market. Stocks were little changed Tuesday as investors awaited further trade developments after President Trump sent tariff letters to 14 countries and extended his deadline for "reciprocal" tariff rates from July 9 to August 1, giving trading partners three more weeks to negotiate. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) rose 0.1%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) fell slightly. The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) edged up 0.3%, on the heels of a losing start to the week for the major gauges. Tesla stock (TSLA) rose 1% after sinking more than 6% in the prior session as CEO Elon Musk announced his intention to start a new third political party in the US. Tesla stock (TSLA) rose 1% in premarket trading on Tuesday. However, it remains below the key 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day moving averages, according to Yahoo Finance analysis.

Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq little changed as Trump's deadline delay gives hope of trade deals
US stocks were little changed on Tuesday as Wall Street weighed President Trump's threat of stiff tariffs on key trading partners against his reprieve on the return of sweeping "Liberation Day" duties. The S&P 500 (^GSPC) hovered near the flatlne, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) was down 0.1% at last check.

Stocks are treading water as markets search for the positive in Trump's latest trade policy shifts. He has moved his July 9 deadline for the resumption of "reciprocal" tariff rates to Aug. 1, giving countries three extra weeks to negotiate trade deals with the US. The president said late Monday that the Aug. 1 deadline was "firm, but not 100% firm" and that he's open to extensions if countries make proposals. That provided fuel for the "TACO" trade — the idea that "Trump always chickens out," or that he will eventually dial back on his trade threats.

Another 12 US trading partners received letters laying out tariffs of up to 40% on Monday, with Malaysia, South Africa, and Indonesia among them. The letters said the rates could be adjusted if countries tailor their trade policies as the US wants. In response, South Korea said it would kick trade negotiations with the US into high gear, adding that it considered the new date an extension of a grace period. "The president may send more letters in the coming days and weeks," the White House said in a statement. Meanwhile, Amazon (AMZN) shares slid around 2% as its Prime Day deals kicked off.
