Indices Hover as Quarterly Weakness Weighs

Mar 31, 2025

Between March 24 and March 31, U.S. equity markets remained in cautious territory as the quarters end approached

The S&P 500 closed near 5,611.85 — marking a roughly 5.8% drop for the month and helping seal the worst quarter for the index since 2022.


Weakness was fueled by lingering trade-policy uncertainty, mixed economic signals, and concerns that growth momentum may be slowing. Despite a few bounce attempts, investors largely sat on the sidelines and leaned into safe-haven assets. With the quarter in the books and few major catalysts on the immediate horizon, markets appear set for a period of consolidation while monitoring developments on tariffs, inflation and corporate earnings.
