DIA declined 1.6% following developments related to U.S. tariffs and market conditions. The Supreme Court struck down President Trump's sweeping "reciprocal" tariffs on imports. In response, Trump announced on Saturday that he would place temporary 15% tariffs on other countries, up from the 10% rate he had announced Friday. Following Trump's announcement of the increased tariffs, U.S. stocks fell on Monday, with the S&P 500 sinking 1%. Investors expressed concerns about uncertainty created by the tariff situation and potential impacts on companies viewed as losers in the artificial intelligence sector. Additionally, DIA's parent company announced that effective February 24, 2026, the SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF Trust will change its name to State Street SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF Trust.

DIA is an ETF that tracks the Dow Jones Industrial Average, a price-weighted index of 30 large-cap U.S. blue-chip companies including Apple, Microsoft, and Goldman Sachs. Its heavy weighting toward financials and industrials makes it particularly sensitive to trade policy shifts and macro uncertainty. Today's tariff escalation — Trump's response to the Supreme Court striking down his reciprocal tariff authority — is hitting exactly those sectors hardest.
