150 best performing stocks in the s and p 500 in the year 2025

Year to date price returns of the individual companies in the S&P 500 Index. The return is calculated using the closing price of the last trading day of the previous year and the current market price. Emily Rowland, co-chief investment strategist at John Hancock Investment Management, joined a discussion on CNBC’s ‘Squawk Box’ on February 13 to share her insights on the markets and the upcoming PPI (Producer Price Index)... She thinks that the S&P earnings are highly underappreciated right now. She noted that the market’s reaction to inflation data has been asymmetric. While higher inflation numbers are often shrugged off, any relief from softer inflation prints tends to cause bigger moves in the markets.

This was evident in the response to the CPI (Consumer Price Index) report. Regarding market performance, Rowland highlighted that the S&P 500 earnings were coming in with strong growth (16% year-over-year for the fourth quarter) and this growth is broad-based across sectors like healthcare and utilities. Financials also showed significant gains with a 50% increase. On discussing President Trump’s announcement of retaliatory tariffs via Truth Social, Rowland said that her team avoids making tactical investment decisions based on political outcomes due to their unpredictability and rapid changes. In terms of attractive sectors for investment within US markets, she highlighted healthcare and industrial companies as promising areas due to their strong fundamentals and potential benefits from ongoing supply chain reshoring activities within... While acknowledging political factors can influence sector performance, her strategy focuses on longer-term economic trends rather than short-term political developments when considering investments in key indices like those represented by major US equities such...

A bit over a month ago, the S&P 500 was down more than 15% on the year and narrowly avoided an official bear market (in fact, it closed down 19% from its highs and... The Nasdaq officially entered one. By mid-May, the S&P 500 soared back into the green for 2025. It was the fastest recovery in over 40 years, with the index erasing its 15% year-to-date loss in less than six weeks.

It’s a good reminder that one of the worst mistakes we can make is to panic sell during times of market stress. The market is now telling us two things. First, it’s to expect a quicker-than-anticipated resolution to the tariff issues and trade wars.
