Good MorningStocks climbed on AI optimism even as stretched valuations prompted profit-taking. The Nasdaq and S&P 500 hovered near record highs, though NVIDIA slipped after its recent rally. Analysts pointed to opportunities in battered communication-services stocks like The Trade Desk and Duolingo, while income investors welcomed Verizon’s dividend hike. Meanwhile, sector rotation stood out, with Rivian breaking ground on a $5 billion Georgia plant despite auto-credit pressures, Tesla facing a new probe into door-handle malfunctions, and Oracle’s strong cloud results boosting sentiment for smaller tech peers. Consumer staples also regained favor as recession-resistant plays.
Policy and global headlines added texture to the rally. The FDA cracked down on telehealth drug advertising, while U.S. sanctions on Iranian cryptocurrency channels underscored tighter cross-border finance oversight. Trade developments included a Mercosur deal with four European nations and Senate Democrats’ push to rescind tariffs on Canada and Brazil. With commodities mixed and Treasury yields steady, investors are shifting focus to upcoming Fed minutes and the next earnings season for guidance.
