Leading U.S. stock indexes saw gains on Wednesday, lifted by a rally in technology shares following an AI-related downturn. This positive momentum comes ahead of the Federal Reserve's anticipated release of its January policy meeting minutes, which investors hope will clarify future interest rate trends.
The S&P 500’s software sector, hard-hit earlier, rebounded by 1.4%, fueled by Cadence Design Systems' impressive revenue performance. Amid these gains, investor unease lingered, particularly concerning AI's disruptive potential, as seen with Palo Alto Networks' significant stock drop after a forecast revision.
Notable advances included Nvidia’s 2.6% rise due to securing a deal with Meta Platforms, alongside other increased megacap stocks. Meanwhile, real estate and utilities lagged behind.
