Morning Report 25 Jul 25: Stocks close at record highs as alphabet fuels AI hopes

It was a mixed bag of earnings overnight.  Tom and Ryan unpack the US session with bond yields increasing while the US dollar dropped, and the S&P 500 and Nasdaq closing at record highs.  Alphabet and Tesla again dominated the conversation, and energy stocks have seen gains amid a climb in oil prices.  Ryan shares expectations around upcoming rate cuts amid unexpected employment numbers, Chipotle shares saw a significant cut, as did IBM and United Healthcare, and tech stocks saw gains potentially fuelled by Alphabet’s earnings.
