Markets End 2025 on Down Note, Still Post Gains
Update: 2025-12-31
Description
2025 Markets End with Gains Despite Tariff Turmoil and AI ExcitementDespite a late-year slump, the S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow Jones Industrial Average all posted double-digit annual gains in 2025, driven by AI mania and a strong finish. The Dow notched its longest monthly win streak since 2017, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq surged over 16% and 20% respectively. However, the year began with a market crash in April due to Trumps tariff threats, and the Santa Claus rally failed to materialize. Chip giant Nvidia reached a $5 trillion market value, while energy and tech stocks like Microsoft struggled. Looking ahead, experts predict broader gains in 2026, with the Federal Reserves policy moves under a potential new chair setting the pace.
