The market experienced a risk-on bias, driven by AI enthusiasm and lower oil prices, leading to record runs for major indexes.

Event Summary

Wall Street's major indexes extended their record run, driven by optimism around AI and strong earnings from tech companies like Dell Technologies, Hewlett-Packard, and Supermicro. Reports of a potential ceasefire deal between the United States and Iran, awaiting approval from President Donald Trump, also fanned investor optimism. Despite this, concerns about the Iran war's impact on inflation and the global economy persisted. Economic data showed inflation increased at its fastest pace in three years, and United States — Federal Reserve officials, including Jeffrey Schmid and Michelle Bowman, warned about inflation risks and potential rate hikes. Retailers like Gap Inc. and American Eagle Outfitters saw their shares tumble due to sales forecasts, while Okta jumped on strong revenue. The automotive sector, including General Motors and Stellantis, was affected by potential changes in trade policy under the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement.
