U.S. stocks swerved through another shaky day of trading, with uncertainty still high about just what President Donald Trump will announce about tariffs on his “Liberation Day.”

The S&P 500 rose 0.4 percent Tuesday after swinging between a drop of 1 percent and a gain of 0.7 percent. The Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped less than 0.1 percent, and the Nasdaq composite rose 0.9 percent.

Treasury yields dropped in the bond market after a report said U.S. manufacturing contracted last month, breaking a two-month streak of growth. Markets have been shaky in the run-up to Wednesday, when Trump will announce a sweeping set of tariffs.

The S&P 500 rose 21.22 points, or 0.4 percent, to 5,633.07.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 11.80 points, or less than 0.1 percent, to 41,989.96.

The Nasdaq composite rose 150.60 points, or 0.9 percent, to 17,449.89.

The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies rose 0.33 points, or less than 0.1 percent, to 2,012.24.
