AMD Lifts Nasdaq to Record as S&P 500 Tops 7,300 and KOSPI Hits 7,000

from Market Brief - After Hours

On today's episode of Market Brief – After Hours, AMD's explosive second-quarter guidance sent the stock soaring 19%, igniting a semiconductor-led rally that pushed the Nasdaq to a fresh all-time high at 25,839 and the S&P 500 above 7,300 for the very first time. Oil collapsed over 7% on easing Persian Gulf tensions, pulling Treasury yields sharply lower and lifting equity valuations across the board, while KOSPI crossed the historic 7,000 level. European stocks surged on the global relief even as the eurozone composite PMI fell into contraction for the first time in 17 months. We break down the full picture across global equities, EUR/USD, GBP/USD, AUD/USD, USD/JPY, gold, silver, and today's biggest individual movers including AMD, Flex, Uber, ARM Holdings, CDW, and Cencora.
