As the markets opened Monday, major live music stocks were mixed even as markets in the US and globally pushed dramatically upward after the White House shared new exemptions to recent tariffs.

In the week ending 4.11.25 U.S. equity markets rebounded somewhat from recent volatility, driven by easing trade tensions and positive earnings reports. But, live music and entertainment stocks underperformed relative to the broader market.​
