Summary · why it matters

The S&P 500 Index is up 0.59%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average is up 0.64%, and the Nasdaq 100 Index is up 0.67%, led by strength in megacap technology stocks. The Magnificent Seven are broadly higher, with Amazon.com, Alphabet, Meta Platforms, and Tesla each up more than 3%, while Microsoft and Nvidia are up more than 1%. Gains were also supported by easing US-Iran tensions after both sides agreed to stop attacks ahead of peace talks in Doha. However, weakness in chipmakers and AI infrastructure stocks limited the upside, with SanDisk down more than 7% and Micron Technology down more than 6%. WTI crude oil rose more than 1% amid the Strait of Hormuz tensions but pulled back from session highs following the de-escalation agreement.
