Trump’s massive tax-and-spending bill headed to the U.S. House of Representatives for possible final approval after the Senate passed the legislation.
Investors have been watching whether President Donald Trump’s administration continues to make progress on trade, said Michael Arone, chief investment strategist at State Street Global Advisors in Boston. “There is some relief in regards to progress on trade. The deal with Vietnam was welcomed news,” Arone said.
According to preliminary data, the S&P 500 gained 29.28 points, or 0.47%, to end at 6,227.29 points, while the Nasdaq Composite gained 190.24 points, or 0.94%, to 20,393.13.
The Trump administration has teased that a deal with India is also coming soon, but has said others may not be ready by July 9.
