CONSUMER DISCRETIONARY UP ON DAY, BUT STILL BIGGEST LOSER YTD
The consumer discretionary index .SPLRCD is leading gains among S&P 500 .SPX sectors on Monday, up 3.4% in afternoon trading, though the sector remains down the most year-to-date.
Lori Calvasina, head of U.S. equity strategy research at RBC Capital Markets, in a note Monday wrote that it's unclear whether U.S. consumers "were actually pulling back on their spend, or simply shifting what they were spending their money on, with a bias towards the latter."
Shares of Tesla TSLA.O and Amazon.com AMZN.O are giving the discretionary index its biggest boost on Monday, with Tesla shares up more than 10% in afternoon trading amid news reports the Trump administration is likely to exclude a set of sector-specific tariffs while applying reciprocal levies on April 2.
Even with the session's move, Tesla remains down 32% year-to-date.
The consumer discretionary index is down 11% for the year, including the session's move.
On Friday, shares of Nike NKE.N fell after a warning of another quarterly sales decline sparked worries about the pace of a crucial turnaround at the company.
