Major indices on Wall Street experienced an upward trend at the start of trading on Monday. The Nasdaq Composite Index rose by more than 2%, following an announcement from the White House indicating that electronics would not be subject to the high tariff rates imposed by the United States, but would instead face a separate tariff structure. The Dow Jones Industrial Average also saw an increase of 0.83% at the opening, while the S&P 500 Index gained 1.47%.

🔎 Fact Check

The post is mostly accurate. Wall Street's major indices did open higher, with the Nasdaq rising significantly, attributed to the White House's announcement regarding tariff exemptions for electronics. However, it is important to note that while the indices rose, they were not at session highs, indicating some volatility.
