U.S. stocks rose at the opening bell on Monday as a Treasury Department official pushed back on reports that the Trump administration would prevent Chinese companies from listing on U.S. exchanges. The S&P 500 SPX, +0.39% was up 0.3% to 2,967. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +0.31% advanced 0.3%, or 81 points, to around 26,901. The Nasdaq Composite COMP, +0.40% rose 0.2% to 7,959.

Reports that the White House was looking at ways to limit U.S. investment into Chinese companies had weighed on the stock-market on Friday. The Treasury official's statement could alleviate concerns that U.S.-China trade tensions had taken a sudden turn for the worse. Investors will also eye the fallout from a whistleblower report released on Thursday that had triggered President Donald Trump's impeachment inquiry.

Peter Navarro: Reports that US would restrict Chinese companies are 'fake news'White House trade advisor Peter Navarro today said reports that the U.S. is considering restrictions on Chinese companies are inaccurate. Bloomberg News reported last week that the Trump admin. is considering delisting Chinese companies from U.S. markets. Trump doesn’t know WTF he’s doing. He’s made a big mess with this trade war. Farmer & Americans are paying the price. Trump has spent $28B in farmer bailouts. All due to bad policy. Heck Obama’s auto bailout was only $12B and that was after an economic crash. Where r the repubs? So basically Bloomberg is accurate. Market is up!!!
