Top Stock Movers – March 31, 2026

By Cot-Trading - Tuesday, March 31, 2026 - No Comments

U.S. stocks staged a powerful rebound Tuesday, with investors betting that tensions in the Middle East could ease, but the surge wasn’t enough to rescue what has been the market’s weakest quarter in years.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average soared more than 1,100 points, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq jumped 2.9% and 3.8%, respectively. Despite the strong finish, all three major indexes ended the first quarter in the red, weighed down by volatility tied to the ongoing Iran conflict and rising energy prices.
