U.S. stocks saw a significant resurgence on Wednesday following a recent sell-off, driven by President Donald Trump's announcement at Davos that he would not use military force in his quest to acquire Greenland. This message provided relief to investors, who appreciated the president's commitment to a diplomatic approach.

The markets had previously nosedived after Trump hinted at tariffs on European allies contingent on the U.S.'s opportunity to purchase Greenland. However, with reassurances from Trump, the major U.S. indexes, including Dow Jones and Nasdaq, reported gains, buoyed by a strong performance from tech and regional banks.

Investors turned their attention to earnings reports and global economic dialogues. Despite a mixed performance in tech, regional banks showed impressive profits, with Charles Schwab and Citizens Financial Group leading the charge. The market continues to monitor developments as the U.S. Supreme Court hears arguments related to Federal Reserve governance.
