Megacap tech drives stocks higher; bitcoin rebounds |
Stocks reversed yesterday’s slump, with all major US indexes rising. Megacap tech propelled stocks higher, with shares of every Mag 7 stock rising, except for Tesla. A rebound in bitcoin rippled across other speculative assets as the market’s mood shifted back to a risk-on sentiment. AI-linked stocks were generally higher as a hot new AI chip entered the villa when Amazon launched the Trainium3 during its AWS re:Invent 2025 event in Las Vegas.
