As of 4:20 PM EST, the spot prices of silver are up by 2.18 percent at $37.10 per troy ounce, with investors resorting to risk-safe assets such as precious metals amid the ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.

9. Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (NYSE:CLF)

Cleveland-Cliffs rallied by 4.92 percent on Tuesday to finish at $7.67 apiece as investor sentiment was boosted by President Donald Trump’s decision to keep tariffs on UK steel imports.

At the sidelines of the G7 summit in Canada, President Donald Trump threatened to keep 25 percent duties on some or all of its steel imports from the UK unless it gives specific guarantees over the Indian-owned steelmaking plant at Port Talbot in South Wales.

“There’s further work to do in relation to steel, but we’re getting on and doing that work,” said UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

Duties on imported steel and aluminum products make domestic manufacturers such as Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (NYSE:CLF) more appealing to customers as it may bolster demand for their products, support competitive pricing for locally-produced goods, and further reduce competition with international producers.

Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (NYSE:CLF) is a US-based steel and iron ore manufacturer based in Cleveland, Ohio.

8. Bath & Body Works, Inc. (NYSE:BBWI)

Bath & Body Works rallied for a second day on Tuesday, adding 5.03 percent to close at $27.13 apiece as investors continued to load up positions while digesting the developments on the global trade landscape.

Earlier this year, Bath & Body Works, Inc. (NYSE:BBWI) forecast annual sales largely below its expectations with uncertainties in consumer spending due to the global trade tensions.

Late last month, Bath & Body Works, Inc. (NYSE:BBWI) earned a lower price target from Morgan Stanley, but kept a “buy” recommendation.

According to Morgan Stanley, Bath & Body Works, Inc. (NYSE:BBWI) remains under pressure from expectations of lesser insulation from tariffs and deceleration in quarter-on-quarter sales, among others, but holds the potential for future growth.

7. Remitly Global, Inc. (NASDAQ:RELY)

Remitly Global grew its share prices by 5.68 percent on Tuesday to close at $20.64 apiece following the US Senate’s move to loosen taxes on international money transfers, sparking optimism for increased digital remittances.

The taxes were among the points under scrutiny under the “One Big, Beautiful Bill Act,” which, based on the version of the House of Representatives, wanted to slap a 3.5-percent excise tax on remittances and would have imposed an additional burden on immigrants sending money back home.

However, the Senate’s version eliminates remittance taxes funded from certain US accounts or with US-issued debit or credit cards. Senate’s exception only applies to US citizens and American bankers, among others.

In the first quarter of the year, Remitly Global, Inc. (NASDAQ:RELY) swung to a net income of $11.35 million from a net loss of $21 million in the same period a year earlier.

Revenues also increased by 34 percent to $361 million from the $269 million registered year-on-year.
