Philip Morris International (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PM#NYSE">PM</a>): The international tobacco company could be one of the stocks gaining interest from investors as a stock that could be highly insulated from the tariff impacts. The company sells tobacco products in other countries with facilities worldwide. In the United States, the company sells the Zyn nicotine pouches thanks to the acquisition of Swedish Match in 2023. The pouches are made in the United States.

Wall Street staged a robust rally Monday following the U.S.-China trade truce that slashed reciprocal tariffs by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">over 100 percentage points</a>.
By midday, risk-on sentiment was running at full throttle, propelling the Nasdaq 100 up 3.5% and lifting the S&amp;P 500 by 2.7% to 5,815.43—its highest level since March. The Dow Jones surged 958 points, or 2.3%, while the small-cap Russell 2000 added 3%.
Under the 90-day reprieve, the U.S. will cut tariffs on Chinese goods from 145% to 30%. China, in turn, will lower its tariffs on U.S. goods from 125% to 10%, effective May 14. The two countries also agreed to launch a formal mechanism for ongoing economic consultations, easing fears of a permanent decoupling.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the agreement followed "very robust discussions" in Geneva

Sector-wise, chipmakers led the rally, with the iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOXX#NASDAQ">SOXX</a>) jumping 7.2%. Marvell Technology Inc.

While equities soared, gold suffered its worst day since Trump's election victory in November 2024. Gold prices dropped 3%, falling below $3,230 per ounce, as investors rotated out of safe havens and into risk assets.
The U.S. dollar index surged 1.3% to 101.8. The short-end of the curve also jumped, driven by fading expectations for near-term Fed rate cuts, with 2-year yields up 10 basis points to 4.0%. Yields on 30-year Treasury bonds climbed to 4.87%,
Oil prices rose 2% to $62.30 per barrel, reaching their highest level since late April amid hopes of a demand boost from improved global trade conditions.

Earnings Scheduled For May 12, 2025

U.S. homebuyers and refinancers staged an aggressive comeback last week, taking swift advantage of slightly lower interest rates just as Wall Street braces for the Federal Reserve's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45224205/will-powell-defy-trump-again-heres-what-the-fed-chair-might-say-on-wednesday">policy decision on Wednesday.</a>
The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) reported that total mortgage applications rose 11% for the week ending May 2, snapping back from the 4.2% decline seen the week before. 
The jump, which ranks among the top four weekly gains in 2025 so far, signals a notable resurgence in housing market activity amid mixed economic signals.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Rates Drop, Applications Spike</h3>
The average 30-year fixed mortgage rate for conforming loan balances—$806,500 or less—eased to 6.84%, down from 6.89% a week earlier. That small dip triggered a wave of new demand, both from buyers and homeowners looking to refinance.
Purchase applications increased by 11%, while refinance activity rose by the same margin. Year-over-year, refinancing volumes are now 51% higher, a dramatic swing after months of tepid activity.
&#8220;With rates moving lower, refinance volume increased 11 percent, led by VA refinance applications, which were up 26 percent,&#8221; said Mike Fratantoni, MBA's chief economist. He noted that conventional purchase applications, typically favored by move-up buyers with higher loan sizes, rose 13% and are now up 9% from a year ago.
Government-backed loans, such as those insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), also saw rising demand. FHA purchase applications jumped 9%, contributing to an overall 6% increase in government loan demand.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Economic Clouds, All Eyes On The Fed</h3>
The mortgage data arrives just days after a slew of mixed economic indicators. 
While April's jobs report showed solid employment gains, other metrics disappointed. First-quarter GDP growth came in negative and manufacturing activity continued to show signs of contraction, according to the latest business surveys.
&#8220;The economic news last week included a negative reading for first-quarter GDP growth and further signs of contraction in the manufacturing sector, mixed with a solid employment report for April,&#8221; said Fratantoni.
Investors overwhelmingly expect the Fed to hold rates steady in the 4.25%-4.5% range during its upcoming policy meeting.
Chair Jerome Powell's press conference, scheduled for 2:30 p.m. ET on Wednesday, will be closely watched for hints on when rate cuts might begin. 
Speculators currently assign just a 30% chance of a 25-basis-point rate cut by June, but odds jump to 75% for a potential easing by July, reflecting growing confidence in a summer pivot.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Reactions</h3>
Real estate equities have started to price in optimism. The Real Estate Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLRE#NYSE">XLRE</a>) climbed 0.8% in premarket trading Wednesday.

$1000 Invested In Simon Property Group 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

President Donald Trump&#8216;s ongoing tariff policy changes have resulted in persistent market volatility and uncertainty. This has increased investors' appetite for stable, defensive stocks paying steady dividends. Dividend stocks have <a href="https://www.hartfordfunds.com/dam/en/docs/pub/whitepapers/WP106.pdf">contributed</a> significantly to overall market returns during the 1940s, 1960s, and 1970s, when average annual total returns were lower.
About seven months ago, a dividend investor <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/dividends/comments/1fldncg/finally_hit_300k_goal/">shared</a> his monthly dividend income details and portfolio on r/Dividends — a Reddit discussion board with over 700,000 followers. The income report shared by the investor showed his monthly dividend income was $23,800, with a projected annual dividend income of just over $300,000.

</ul>
The investor, in his mid-50s, said he had about 150 holdings in his portfolio worth roughly $4.4 million. Asked how he was able to accumulate wealth to build such a large portfolio, he said it took him years to reach this milestone:
"Started at $3.50 per hour. Went back to school in my early 30s as did my wife. Definitely no inheritance and student loans to boot. Just 35 years of investing."
The investor said over $2 million of his wealth came from "decades of trading" biotech company Immunomedics, which was <a href="https://www.gilead.com/news/news-details/2020/gilead-sciences-to-acquire-immunomedics">bought</a> by Gilead Sciences (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GILD#NASDAQ">GILD</a>) in 2020 for $88 per share.&nbsp;

Scotiabank Maintains Sector Perform on Simon Property Group, Lowers Price Target to $159

On CNBC's &#8220;Mad Money Lightning Round,&#8221; Jim Cramer recommended buying Simon Property Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPG#NYSE">SPG</a>) calling it a &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SPG/earnings">terrific&#8221; company.</a>
Simon will release financial and operational results for the quarter ending March 31, after the market close on May 12.
&#8220;I like aerospace very much,&#8221; Cramer said when asked about TransDigm Group Incorporated (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TDG#NYSE">TDG</a>). &#8220;There's no reason to descend to TransDigm when you have GE,&#8221; referring to General Electric (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>).
On April 17, Truist Securities analyst Michael Ciarmoli maintained TransDigm with a Buy rating and lowered the price target from $1,534 to $1,490.
Cramer said CarMax, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMX#NYSE">KMX</a>) has come down so much. He recommended not selling it.
On April 10, CarMax posted weaker-than-expected fourth-quarter earnings.
&#8220;Gold, I think, is going higher still. And Barrick Gold has a lot more room to run,&#8221; Cramer said when asked about Barrick Gold Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOLD#NYSE">GOLD</a>). &#8220;I think GOLD is a good place to be.&#8221;
Shares of gold companies traded higher on Monday after gold prices reached an all-time high.
Price Action:
<ul>
<li>Simon Property shares fell 2.1% to settle at $147.20 on Monday.</li>
<li>TransDigm shares fell 2.3% to close at $1,306.55 during the session.</li>
