Chips Surge 5% and Intel Jumps 11% as Nasdaq Fights Back

On today's episode of Market Brief – After Hours, the semiconductor sector staged a dramatic comeback after its worst session in years, with Intel surging on a major Google deal and Micron reclaiming a large slice of Friday's losses. The Middle East remained a live threat as Iranian strikes sent oil spiking before a last-minute Trump intervention steadied the ceasefire — for now. We also cover a wild intraday reversal in gold, a Bitcoin-fuelled surge in crypto stocks, and a brutal session across Asia-Pacific where South Korea's Kospi posted its worst single-day drop since 2020. Plus full FX coverage of EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/CHF, and USD/CAD. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
