Benzinga examined the prospects for<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> many investors' favorite stocks</a> 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.
Despite the turmoil, certain stocks have outperformed. For instance, Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) have shown resilience amid the market's fluctuations, demonstrating robust fundamentals and strategic positioning that appeal to investors even during uncertain times.
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.

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

WIIM

Aehr Test Systems shares are trading higher after the company reported better-than-expected Q3 financial results.

U.S. stock futures were volatile on Wednesday after the equities reversed gains on Tuesday following President Donald Trump&#8216;s 104% tariff on China. Futures of major benchmark indices were mixed in premarket.
The White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44698697/markets-reverse-gains-as-trumps-104-china-tariff-announcement-rattles-wall-street">confirmed that Trump&#8217;s retaliatory</a> 104% tariff on Chinese imports would take effect at 12:01 a.m. ET Wednesday. Her remarks triggered a sharp deterioration in market sentiment and reignited fears of a global trade escalation.
Despite growing geopolitical concerns surrounding China, a new U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44700937/us-companies-stick-with-china-as-trump-tariffs-take-effect-report">report highlighted by</a> The Wall Street Journal reveals that most surveyed companies still find significant strategic advantages in staying or growing their operations there.
This finding underscores a divergence between Washington&#8217;s &#8220;selective decoupling&#8221; efforts and the deep reliance of corporate America on China&#8217;s manufacturing, workforce, and consumer base.
Major indices were significantly down from recent highs as of Tuesday&#8217;s close. The S&amp;P 500 was 18.95% lower, the Nasdaq 100 was down 23.10%, and the Dow Jones declined 16.48%, following a week of tariff-driven selloffs.
The 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.35% and the two-year bond was at 3.80%. However, the CME Group's FedWatch&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>‘s projections showed markets pricing a 58.3% likelihood of the Federal Reserve keeping the current interest rates unchanged in its May meeting.

Insights From Analysts:
In this environment of heightened uncertainty, Julia Khandoshko, CEO at European broker Mind Money, advises investors to focus on capital preservation rather than chasing high returns.
&#8220;The most rational strategy in the short term is to focus on liquidity, reliable fixed-income instruments, and safe haven assets such as gold. This is not an attempt to make money but a need to preserve capital in conditions of high uncertainty,&#8221; she adds.
Even nations currently enjoying a trade surplus shouldn&#8217;t be complacent, warns Khandoshko. She points to the danger of stagflation – a damaging combination of stalled economic growth and ongoing inflation – using Japan&#8217;s long-lasting difficulties as a stark example.
The widening 3-year SOFR swap spread is signaling <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44705659/cathie-wood-points-to-serious-liquidity-issues-as-overnight-borrowing-rate-spreads-widen-o">growing liquidity problems</a> within the U.S. banking system, according to Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood. She argues that this crisis necessitates swift solutions, including a trade agreement and aggressive Federal Reserve intervention, emphasizing the urgency with &#8220;No more time to waste.&#8221;
This spread, a key indicator of U.S. banking liquidity, represents the difference between the fixed rate in a SOFR-based swap and the yield on a government bond of the same maturity.
SOFR, the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, is the benchmark reflecting the cost of overnight cash borrowing used across various financial transactions, and its widening spread adds to existing concerns about emerging liquidity issues in the U.S. market.

Meanwhile, Ed Yardeni of Yardeni Research suggests that "Fixed-income investors may be starting to worry that the Chinese and other foreigners might start selling their U.S. Treasuries," after Trump levied 104% tariff duties on China after the latter's retaliation.
Adding to the market unease, credit markets are exhibiting increasing strain, evidenced by a rapidly widening yield spread between high-yield corporate bonds and the 10-year Treasury.
Data from Yardeni indicates this spread reached 407 basis points as of April 7th, signaling declining investor confidence and growing concerns about an economic slowdown or potential recession.
"The good news is that the Fed Put will probably make a quick comeback if this happens," said Yardeni.

Aehr Test Systems Posts Weak Results, Joins Trump Media & Technology Group And Other Big Stocks Moving Lower In Tuesday's Pre-Market Session

U.S. stock futures advanced on Tuesday following Monday&#8217;s mixed close. Futures of all four major indices rose in premarket trade. Technology stocks dragged the Nasdaq down on Monday, whereas Dow Jones which has the least number of tech constituents rose in trade.
Members of President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s incoming economic team are considering a gradual increase in tariffs over several months, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-13/trump-team-studies-gradual-tariff-hikes-under-emergency-powers">reported </a>Bloomberg. This approach is designed to enhance negotiating leverage while minimizing the risk of a sudden rise in inflation.
Traders now await the consumer price inflation data this week on Wednesday, which will further clear the case for the Fed to pause the rate cuts.
The 10-year and two-year Treasury notes yielded 4.77% and 4.38%, respectively. The probability of having no change in the interest rates for the upcoming Jan. 31, 2025 decision was at 97.3%, according to CME Group&#8217;s FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>.

Cues From The Last Session
Wall Street experienced mixed trading on Monday. The Dow Jones comprised of 30 major companies, saw a substantial increase, driven by a shift of investment towards sectors outside of technology. In contrast, the Nasdaq, heavily weighted towards technology companies, experienced a slight dip. The broader S&amp;P 500 index saw a modest increase.
This market activity follows a period of two weeks of declining stock prices, primarily attributed to a sell-off in technology stocks. However, the Russell 2000 index, which tracks smaller-company stocks, showed a slight increase.
While technology stocks faced headwinds, the energy sector outperformed the market, fueled by rising oil prices. The healthcare and materials sectors also witnessed gains.
Dow rose 358.67 points, or 0.86%, to close at 42,297.12. Nasdaq dropped 0.38% to 19,088.10. The S&amp;P 500 inched up 0.16%, ending at 5,836.22. Russell 2000, on the other hand, rose 0.24% to 2,194.50 points.

Insights From Analysts
Despite Monday&#8217;s fall in technology stocks, Jeremy Siegel, the senior economist to WisdomTree said that growth stocks, particularly in the tech sector, remain dominant. &#8220;The AI-driven investment narrative continues to support these high-growth names, with no signs yet of a definitive shift toward value,&#8221; he added.
He described the markets as &#8220;overly optimistic&#8221; as the S&amp;P 500, trades at 23x forward earnings. According to Siegel, the consensus earnings growth of 16% for 2025 is likely too high and an 8–9% increase is more realistic. &#8220;Consequently, the market could see a correction as valuations adjust to higher rates and moderated growth expectations,&#8221; he said.
Analysts at BlackRock, on the other hand, said that they were &#8220;pro-risk&#8221; and overweight in U.S. stocks. However, they highlighted three areas that could change their view, which includes how U.S. tariffs and fiscal policy shape up.
They are also looking out for &#8220;corporate earnings and lofty tech valuations amid the artificial intelligence buildout&#8221; to see if this will sour the investor risk appetite. And lastly, the analysts said, &#8220;We look for elevated vulnerabilities, like surging bond yields as markets price out rate cuts and corporate debt refinancing at higher interest rates.&#8221;
CNBC&#8217;s Jim Cramer has offered <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/01/42967410/jim-cramer-says-one-two-punch-from-government-and-meta-ceo-mark-zuckerberg-led-to-nasdaqs-monday-decline-may-have-been-too-much-for-everyone">insights </a>into the recent struggles of the Nasdaq Composite, which failed to rally despite gains in other major indices. Cramer attributed the Nasdaq's decline to a "one-two punch" from the U.S. government. Over the weekend, the Biden administration introduced new restrictions on semiconductor exports, which Cramer criticized as "short-sighted," on Monday.
