Market on April 8
On April 8, U.S. equity markets were still reeling from a major sell-off sparked by the Liberation Day tariffs.
But things turned around fast. The next day, President Trump announced he’d pause any new tariffs for 90 days. The news sent the S&P 500 soaring 9.5% – its biggest single-day jump since 2008.
From there, despite the tariff-induced yippy reaction, markets kept climbing thanks to the Fed’s more dovish tone and stronger-than-expected tech earnings.
Large-cap tech continued to lead the charge, though few could match the extraordinary momentum of Coinbase. Over the three months, the index itself rose approximately 6.3% from early April, currently trading at $6,234,

The average 12-month price target stands at $299.47, suggesting a potential 15.83% downside from the current price of $355.80. From all 23 ratings, forecasts range from a high of $510.00 to a low of $190.00.
