Major indexes closed lower Friday as stocks retreated late in the s♈ession after the White House sai🍒d tariffs on Mexico, Canada and China will take effect Saturday.
The S&P 500 and 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:Nasdaq Composite fell 0.5% and 0.3%, respectively, while the 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:Dow Jones Industrial Average shed 0.8%. The major indexes managed to post gains for the month, despite a 澳洲幸运5官❀方开奖结果体彩网:roller-coaster last week of trading fueled by corporate results, the Federal Reserve's latest decision on interest rates and the revelation that 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:Chinese startup DeepSeek had launch💙ed a highly effective, low-cost AI model.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Friday afternoon that the Trump administration will impose 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada, and a 10% rate on China. The news appears to end a period of doubt over whether President Donald Trump would follow through on his campaign promise of 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:wide-ranging tariffs. Investors worry that the tariffs could take a heavy toll on certain industries, while🧜 potentially spurring inflation.
Major indexes had spent much of Friday in positive terri𝄹tory as investors digested a barrage of earnings reports and a benign reading on a closely followed inflation indicator.
Shares of major technology companies, which endured an especially volatile week, closed mostly higher, with two notable exceptions. Apple (AAPL) fell 0.7% despite reporting 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:better-than-expected earnings, while AI chipmaker Nvidia (NVDA), which 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:has been particularly hard hit in the wake of the DeepSeek news, slid 3.7%. Microsoft (MSFT), Alphabet (GOOGL), Amazon (AMZN), Meta Platforms (META), Tesla (TSLA) and Broadcom (AVGO) gained ground.
Among noteworthy post-earnings movers, Intel (INTC) shares slumped nearly 3% after the beleaguered 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:chipmaker reported a narrower-than-expected loss for the fourth quarter but issued a disappointing outlook. Atlassian (TEAM) shares soared 15% after 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:the software company issued an upbeat revenue outlook amid robust demand for its AI products. Pharmaceutical giant AbbVie (ABBV) rose nearly 6% after 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:releasing strong earnings, while oil majors Exxon Mobil (XOM) and Chevron (CVX) retreated 2.5% and 4.6%, respectively.
On the economic data front, the Personal Consumption Expenditures index, which is the Fed's preferred inflation gauge, showed that 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:inflation accelerated in December, though the number was in line with economists' expectations. The 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:Fed earlier this week opted to leave its influential fed funds rate unchanged, after having cut it by a full percentage p🎀oint since September, as the economy has continued to show strength and inflation remains stubborn.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury, which is correlated with expectations about where interest rates are headed, was at 4.54% in recent trading, up from 4.51% at yesterday's close. The yield jumped as high as 4.58% after the news on tariffs.
Bitcoin was at $102,000,﷽ down from an earlier high of $106,000. Gold futures were down 0.5% at around $2,830 an ounce after hitt🎉ing a new record high of $2,860 this morning, while WTI crude oil futures rose 1.5%.

Analysts See AI as Key to More Apple Stock Gains
After Apple (AAPL) CEO Tim Cook said the iPhone maker is seeing 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:record iPhone upgrades with the rollout of Apple Intelligence, several analysts raise🍨d their price targets for the company's stock, pointing to AI updates as a potential source of growth.
Morgan Stanley analysts said Apple's 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:first-quarter results underlined how "Apple Intelligence is bolstering iPhone performance," and suggested a "cleaner catalyst path" for updates expected in the coming months. The analysts raised their price target to $275 from $273 and maintained an "overweight" rating. They added the launch of a 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:lower-cost iPhone SE4 could also help revenue.
Of the 17 analysts covering the stock t🐭racked by Visible Alpha, 10 have issued “buy” or equivalent ratings, compared to five “hold” ratings, and two “sell” ratings. Th༺eir consensus price target is about $253, a roughly 7% premium over Apple’s closing price Friday.
Cook said on the company's earnings call Thursday that Apple Intelligence will roll out in more languages in April, and users can also expect new features like an “even more capable Siri” in the future. He added that Apple has seen better performance from the iPhone 16 lineup in regions where Apple Intelligence is available, compared to markets where it hasn’t been rolled out.

This comes amid concerns about falling sales in China, where Apple Intelligence remains unavailable due to regulatory hurdles. Apple’s first-quarter revenue fell 11% year-over-year in the region, as Chinese smartphone makers like Vivo and Huawei 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:gained market share.
Wedbush analysts, who maintained a $325 price target, expressed confidence that Apple could find an 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:artificial intelligence partner in the region to facilitate an Apple Intelligence rollout in the county as soon as April. “We♔ believe as Apple I෴ntelligence rolls out in China we will see growth markedly rebound in this region to double digits,” they said.
Cook also said t🉐hat recent fiscal stimulus announced in the country would “cover the categories that we have products,” which JPMorgan analysts suggested could improve sales. JPMorgan raised its price target for Apple stock to $270 from $260.
Shares of Apple fell 0.7% to $236 Friday, after paring back gains earlier in the session. They've added about 27% over the past 12 months.

Maker of Uggs and Hoka Leads S&P 500 Decliners
Deckers Outdoor (DECK) shares plunged Friday, despite the shoemaker reporting sales results for the latest quarter that beat 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:analysts' estimates.
The company, which sells Hoka, Ugg, and Teva footwear, told investors late Thursday that the company doesn't see demand flagging for its most sought-after shoes. Still, Deckers shares were down 20% in afternoon trading Friday, leading S&P 500 decliners, amid investor concerns about demand trends.
The footwear company said fiscal third-quarter quarter’s sales hit a record $1.83 billion, growing 17% 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:year-over-year and coming in higher than the $1.73 billion analyst consensus estimate from VisibleAlpha.Deckers reported $3 in earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter ended Dec. 31, while analysts polled by VisibleAlpha had estimated the company would have $2.60 in EPS.
Deckers now expects sales to grow 15%—rather than 12%—and hit $4.9 billion for the full fiscal year, 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:Chief Financial Officer Steven Fasching said in a Thursday earnings conference call, according to a transcript provided by AlphaSense. He said Deckers doesn't expect Ugg or Hoka toౠ lose traction after they had year-over-year sales increases of about 16% and 24%, respectively♛, last quarter.
“The demand for these brands is💫 still incredible,” Fasching said on the cꦗall.
The pullback presents an opportunity to buyܫ Deckers shares, UBS analysts wrote in a Friday note. Investors may worry that Hoka is decelerating and Ugg can’t repeat its strong results, but the report called these fears “misplaced.”
“Hoka has a robust new product pipeline,” the UBS note said, while calling Ugg one of “the strongest casual footwear brands in the world” that's transforming into a “true four-season brand" after launching as a winter shoe.

TradingView
Even with today's selloff, Deckers stock is up 45% over the past 12 months, easily outpacing the S&P 500 over that period.
Nvidia CEO Heads to White House After Wild Week for Stock
Nvidia (NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang is set to meet with President Donald Trump at the White House, Bloomberg reported Friday, afte🦹r a wild week for the chipmaker's stock.
Shares were down nearly 1% in afternoon trading Friday, having lost more than 13% of their value this week after the rapid rise of 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:Chinese AI startup DeepSeek rattled markets.
The surging popularity of an app from DeepSeek, which claimed it developed an AI model rivaling the performance of American competitors for a fraction of the cost, spurred a 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:reckoning on Wall Street about the competitiveness of American AI leaders and their spending on tech, sending shares of Nvi🌞dia and other AI stocks into a🅷 tailspin earlier in the week.
Still, analysts have largely remained bullish on the chipmaker's stock, with Bank of America 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:telling clients Wednesday they "view the recent selloff as an enhanced buy opportunity." Analysts at Bernstein, Citi, Wedbush, Raymond James, and elsewhere were also among those that suggested the market’s reaction 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:may have been overblown.
Raymond James and Bank of America added that they expect competition from China could push Big Tech companies like Microsoft (MSFT), Amazon (AMZN), and Alphabet (GOOGL) to spend even more on AI, to the benefit of Nvidia, Broadcom (AVGO), and other AI chipmakers.
In earnings calls this week, executives from Microsoft and Meta 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:stood by their plans to spend 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:billions of dollars this year on AI infrastructure.
