Summary
US stocks surged at the open as Iran’s decision to halt strikes against Israel lifted investor nerves, pushing the Nasdaq up 1.6% and the S&P 500 higher by 0.7%. Oil prices, which spiked earlier, retreated after the de-escalation news. The rebound follows a volatile week marked by AI bubble fears and strong US job data sparking Fed rate hike speculation. Meanwhile, a major US semiconductor firm pledged a £2 billion investment in UK AI supercomputers, aiming to bolster sovereign computing power. Markets remain finely tuned to geopolitical shifts, while inflation and interest rate concerns linger as key watchpoints. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
