The S&P 500 climbed 1% Monday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.5%, and the Nasdaq composite added 1.2%. Treasury yields held steady in the bond market following last week’s big moves on hopes that a cooling job market could get the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates this year.

On Monday:

The S&P 500 rose 52.95 points, or 1%, to 5,180.74.
