Summary

  • AppLovin rose 6.2% and Elastic added 4.1% in afternoon trading after the Trump administration announced a peace deal that would reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
  • The rally followed a drop in the 10-year Treasury yield to 4.41%—its lowest since mid-May—which lifted valuations for rate-sensitive software stocks.
  • A calmer macro backdrop also supports enterprise software demand, as customers that delayed purchases and renewals during the geopolitical flare-up face a steadier planning environment.
  • For AppLovin, the rebound only partly offsets recent pressure: the stock fell 7.4% six days earlier and remains down 14.8% this year, 28.2% below its December 2025 high.
