Stocks climbed on Tuesday after markets tumbled in the last three sessions over the rollout of President Donald Trump's tariffs plan.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average was 1,200 points, or 3%, higher, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite were up 2.8% and 3.3%, respectively.
Stocks seesawed during Monday's session, with the major indexes mixed at the closing bell. The Dow fell 349.26 points, or 0.91%, while the S&P 500 slid 0.23%. The Nasdaq Composite turned positive toward the end of the trading session, finishing up 0.1%.
Markets were jolted late last week after Trump announced tariffs on U.S. trading partners.
The president on Monday threatened China with additional tariffs, which dropped Wall Street further into the red.
