Jan 6, 2025 7:03 AM

Jan 6 (Reuters) -

Wall Street's main indexes opened higher on Monday as

optimism around AI boosted technology stocks, and a report

suggested the incoming Trump administration could adopt a less

aggressive stance on tariffs than previously anticipated.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 103.4 points,

or 0.24%, at the open to 42,835.52. The S&P 500 rose 40.3

points, or 0.68%, to 5,982.81​, while the Nasdaq Composite

rose 230.3 points, or 1.17%, to 19,851.99.
