10 Stocks Lead Rally Amid Market Bloodbath

The stock market took a battering anew on Tuesday, with all major indices registering steep losses as investors continued to digest President Donald Trump’s next tariff deadline that would slap China with a cumulative 104-percent tariff.

The tech-heavy Nasdaq registered the heaviest fall, down by 2.15 percent, followed by the S&P 500’s 1.57 percent decline, and the Dow Jones’ 0.84-percent drop.

Meanwhile, 10 companies—four of which were in the medical sector—bucked an overall market decline, booking modest gains during the session.

In this article, we listed the 10 well-performing names of Tuesday and detailed the reasons behind their gains.

To come up with the list, we considered only the stocks with $2 billion market capitalization and $5 million in trading volume.

10. Sandisk Corp. (NASDAQ:SNDK)

Sandisk grew its share prices for a second day on Tuesday, adding 2.76 percent to end at $32.35 apiece as investors cheered the launch of what it touted as the next-generation storage solutions.

At the 2025 NAB Show in Las Vegas, SNDK launched the new SanDisk PRO-CINEMA CFexpress Type A Card, designed to meet the demand of professional cinematographers and videographers.

The new storage product boasts transfer speeds of 1800MB/s and write speeds up to 1650MB/s, enabling faster turnaround from shoot to post-production, ideal for professionals working with 8K RAW video, high-frame-rate footage, and burst photography.

The PRO-CINEMA CFexpress is available in capacities up to 960GB.

In addition to the CFexpress, SNDK is set to launch two powerful flash drives this summer to cater to the needs of media and entertainment professionals requiring fast, flexible, and high-capacity portable storage.

9. Constellation Energy Corporation (NASDAQ:CEG)

Constellation Energy rose for a second day on Tuesday, adding 2.86 percent to end at $184.94 apiece as investors found the company a haven asset to mitigate risks from the ongoing economic uncertainties.

As one of the leading power producers in the US, CEG is set to benefit from the Trump administration’s plan to ramp up the energy sector to power the manufacturing and artificial intelligence industries.

Earlier this week, Energy Secretary Chris Wright said he envisioned AI data centers to co-locate facilities with power sources in a bid to support the expansion of the US AI industry.

“You’re going to co-locate power. You’re going to build a data center, and you’re going to build the power and resources to power it,” he said.

The department said it was looking to enable the construction of AI infrastructure by the end of the year and begin operations at data center sites by the end of 2027.

The DOE’s plan was aimed at addressing one of the largest challenges facing the energy sector: finding a sufficient supply of electricity to support the AI boom and ensure the US stays competitive with China.
