The U.S. stock market showed resilience in July 2025, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq reaching record highs despite ongoing trade policy uncertainties. The Dow also trended upward, nearing its first record high of the year. Strong corporate earnings, with 80% of S&P 500 companies beating expectations, and a robust labor market with a 4.1% unemployment rate supported market gains. Technology and consumer cyclical sectors led, with gains of 10.3% and 8.9%, respectively. However, tariff-related concerns introduced volatility, keeping investors cautious.
As we closed the books on June, the stock market delivered another solid month of gains, building on the positive momentum seen throughout the first half of 2025. Investor sentiment remained strong, supported by resilient economic data, cooling inflation trends, and growing optimism around the Federal Reserve’s potential rate cuts later this year.
At Prism Capital Management, we’re committed to keeping you informed about the latest market trends. Here’s a brief overview of how the markets performed in April and what we’re keeping an eye on as we move into May.
As February draws to a close, markets continue to navigate a dynamic landscape shaped by shifting economic data, Federal Reserve policy expectations, and global trade developments. While U.S. equities reached new highs earlier in the month, volatility crept back into the market as investors assessed inflation reports, interest rate forecasts, and geopolitical risks.
