Here are the biggest S&P 500 winners in 2025 as stocks get pummeled by the trade war
The stock market has plunged this year amid tariff chaos.
But 138 companies in the S&P 500 are still in positive territory for the year.
These are the 10 best-performing names in the benchmark index in 2025.
The stock market has undergone a brutal sell-off this year as investors grapple with the uncertainty of President Donald Trump's economic policies.
The S&P 500 has declined 17% since peaking in mid-February, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 index has fallen into a bear market.
Both indices were down 3% on Monday as investors were rattled again by Trump's fresh attacks on Federal Reserve chief Jerome Powell, who the president has said he would like to fire before his term ends in 2026.
But amid the stock market carnage are pockets of strength, and there are still 138 stocks in the S&P 500 that have seen a gain year-to-date.
From gold miners to utility companies, here are the stocks investors are flocking to as the broader market tumbles.
