US stocks hit records on AI profits and easing oil prices · 1 source tracked

The US stock market reached new record highs, driven by strong profit reports from AI-focused companies like Palantir Technologies and chip manufacturers such as Nvidia and Broadcom. Palantir, in particular, saw its stock surge nearly 30% following a significant revenue leap and an optimistic full-year forecast. Heavy equipment maker Caterpillar also reported record sales, partly attributed to increased orders for AI data center turbines. This surge in corporate earnings, coupled with easing oil prices and lower treasury yields, contributed to the broader market rally, with the S&P 500, Dow Jones, and Nasdaq all posting substantial gains.
