Have we already hit bottom is sort of the big question, because if we have great, the Dow futures again this morning were up over a thousand points.
The S&P futures were up about two and a half percent. The Nasdaq futures were up two point two six percent. So is all the panic overrated? Is it all over? Are we basically now on even keel footing? Well, to understand that, you sort of have to understand what happened in the market yesterday. So it was a wild session yesterday in the markets, up and down and all around.
There were points at which the market was down over 1,000 points. There were points at which the market was up over 500 points. And nobody really seemed to be able to get their hands around what exactly was happening. According to the Wall Street Journal, stock futures rose in after hours trading Monday following a day of market whiplash that ultimately left major indices largely unchanged.
Contracts tied to the Dow Industrials, the S&P 500, the tech-heavy NASDAQ 100 all ended up gaining more than 1%. A false dawn on the tariff front fueled a brief rally Monday morning with the S&P 500 surging some 7% from its low on the day before the administration clarified there would be no delay in implementing new levies. And this is the key to understanding what's going on with the market.
So yesterday there was a $2 trillion swing, a $2 trillion swing. And part of that came in the middle of the day when there was a false report that Kevin Hassett, the head of the National Council of Economic Advisors, had said that there would in fact be a 90-day delay put on the tariffs. And it turned out he didn't say anything like that. It was a false report from a blue check on Twitter.
And again, blue checks on Twitter don't mean what they used to mean. If you were a blue check during the old Twitter days, that meant that you were somebody who was usually at a large outlet or somebody who was quite famous. Now you can sort of buy the blue check. And so just having a blue check by your name doesn't mean anything, but it's still taken in the old way.
So some bizarre account put out a statement saying, that the United States was going to essentially postpone the implementation of Trump's tariffs for 90 days. And the market spiked immediately, went up hundreds and hundreds of points within minutes. The White House said that's not true. And then the market dropped again. Again, that was bad reporting.
