S&P 500 Wipes Out Tariff Losses: Did Someone Say FREE MONEY?

April Showers Bring May Flowers... and Market Volatility?

Alright folks Mr. Beast here and let me tell you April was WILD. We saw the S&P 500 acting like Chandler trying to parallel park – all over the place! One minute it's plummeting thanks to some tariff talk the next it's soaring higher than Karl when I tell him we're giving away Lambos. But hey at least it wasn't as bad as that time I tried to bake a cake. Disaster doesn't even begin to cover it! Thank goodness May decided to chill out and play nice.

WINNING Streak?! You Get a Stock You Get a Stock EVERYBODY Gets a Stock!

So get this: the S&P 500 went on a nine session WIN STREAK. NINE! That's longer than I can go without accidentally setting something on fire. Seriously though it’s the first time in two decades that the S&P 500 has had this much consistency. Optimism was in the air like when I tell Chris he doesn't have to eat weird food for a video. Everyone thought trade deals were coming which is basically like free money! Should I just give away some stocks instead of cash next time? Hmmm...

Cybersecurity: The Real MVP

Okay let's talk winners. CrowdStrike is basically the Lebron James of the stock market right now. Up almost 20%! Turns out companies are REALLY worried about getting hacked. Makes sense nobody wants their secrets out there. CrowdStrike is so good analysts are saying it's one of the 'best positioned companies in security.' High praise! Makes me want to invest... and then give it all away! Palo Alto Networks is also doing great which is basically proof that fighting digital bad guys is where it's at. Take that internet trolls!

Broadcom's Big Brain Move

Broadcom took a nosedive when the tariff stuff hit but guess what? They bounced back HARD. Their CEO was like 'Nah we're good,' and announced a $10 BILLION buyback. That's more money than I've given away... so far! Plus they've got software so they're not just relying on chips. Smart move Broadcom. Smart move. Meanwhile Nvidia's been caught in the crossfire of the US China trade war. Ouch. Sometimes even the best get hit. But Nvidia will bounce back! I believe in them!

Starbucks: A Latte Trouble

Okay now for the sad news. Starbucks is down almost 18%! Apparently Wall Street wanted a faster turnaround. Plus there's trouble brewing (get it?) in China with the local competition. But hey even Mr. Beast Burger had its ups and downs! I'm giving Starbucks a little more time. They make coffee I make content we all make mistakes!

Bristol Myers Squibb: Doctor Doctor Give Me the News!

And Bristol Myers Squibb... oof. Their new drug didn't pan out the way they wanted. That's rough. But hey analysts are still standing by them! They raised their price target so there's still hope. Remember folks investing is like my challenges sometimes you win sometimes you fail. But you gotta keep going! And remember to subscribe for more Mr. Beast content and give aways!
