Benzinga Bulls And Bears: Apple, Nike, US Steel — And The Markets Ride Out Ongoing Volatility

Benzinga examined the prospects for many investors' favorite stocks over the last week — here's a look at some of our top stories.

President Donald Trump's hold on global tariffs but imposition of a 145% levy on Chinese imports led to significant market volatility and eroding confidence in the dollar and Treasuries this week. The 30-year Treasury yield briefly reached 5%, indicating the return of bond vigilantes — investors selling bonds in reaction to policy decisions.

Overall, while the broader market faces challenges from escalating trade tensions and policy uncertainties, select companies continue to thrive, highlighting the importance of strategic agility and strong fundamentals in navigating volatile economic landscapes.

Benzinga provides daily reports on the stocks most popular with investors. Here are a few of this past week's most bullish and bearish posts that are worth another look.
