Stock futures climbed after a temporary tariff break on high-tech imports, with Nasdaq futures leading at 1.26%. Companies like Apple and Nvidia benefit, though some goods, such as computers, still face tariffs. Despite ongoing tariff policy uncertainty, markets remain optimistic about tech’s resilience.

Stock futures climbed Sunday evening after the Trump administration provided a temporary break on tariffs for high-tech electronic imports, many originating from China. Dow futures jumped 0.5% (212 points), while S&P 500 futures rose 0.75%. The Nasdaq Composite futures led the pack with a 1.26% gain as of 6:18 p.m. ET.

The move offers a brief sigh of relief to tech giants like Apple, Microsoft, and Nvidia. These companies rely heavily on Chinese manufacturing, and without this exemption, products like iPhones and other consumer electronics could see steep price hikes.

However, this tariff break comes with strings attached. Goods manufactured in China, such as computers and semiconductors, still face a 20% tariff. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick clarified Sunday, saying, “This exemption isn’t permanent.” Some officials hinted at a new round of tariffs post-investigation into the national security implications of semiconductor imports.
