Discount-Retailer Shares Climb on Tariff Pause

Dow Jones2025-04-10

By Katherine Hamilton

Shares of discount retailers rose after Trump announced a pause on tariffs, soothing fears the companies would have to raise prices amid falling demand.

Five Below's stock climbed 11% to $62 onWednesday afternoon after hitting a 52-week low on Friday. Dollar Tree gained 2.9% to $71.71 and Ollie's Bargain Outlet shares were up 8% to $111.78 respectively.

The companies are heavily reliant on trade and some have already raised prices in recent years to deal with inflation. Dollar Tree, once known as a dollar store, raised prices to $1.25 and is planning to bump more items to $1.50.

Their shoppers tend to have lower income, so keeping prices down is vital to their core customer base. Tariffs were fueling fears of a recession, which was expected to drive down discretionary spending.

The threat isn't gone. Dollar Tree and Five Below both source much of their merchandise from China, where tariffs are now 125% and won't be paused, Trump said Wednesday.
