Summary

  • By 9:56 a.m. ET, the Dow had climbed 450 points, the S&P 500 0.81% and the Nasdaq 1.07%, extending an early rebound after Wednesday’s tech-led slide.
  • Intel surged 10% and the Philadelphia Semiconductor index jumped 4.5% as investors bought beaten-down chip and technology names that had pushed tech into correction territory.
  • Oracle sank 12.5% after flagging heavier fiscal 2027 capital spending, dragging software shares down 2.2% even as 10 of 11 S&P sectors traded higher.
  • Trump’s warning that Washington would hit Iran “very hard tonight” and move on its oil and gas infrastructure kept oil prices firm, while May producer prices rose more than expected.
  • The Fed is still expected to hold rates next week, but markets now price in at least one 25-basis-point hike this year as the Middle East war adds to inflation and growth risks.
