US markets end mostly higher on Monday

07 Jan 2025 Evaluate

The US markets ended mostly higher on Monday with Nasdaq settling higher by over one percent. The early rally on markets partly reflected continued strength among tech stocks after contract electronics giant Foxconn reported record fourth quarter revenue amid strong AI server demand. Foxconn is an assembly partner with AI darling and market leader Nvidia (NVDA), which shot up by 3.4 percent on the day. Chipmaker Micron (MU) also posted a standout gain, skyrocketing by 10.5 percent. Early buying interest was also generated in reaction to a private report suggesting President-elect Donald Trump may scale back his tariff plans. However, buying interest waned over the course of the session as Trump dismissed the report as fake news.

On the sectoral front, despite the pullback by the broader markets, airline stocks continued to see substantial strength on the day, resulting in a 3.7 percent spike by the NYSE Arca Airline Index. American Airlines (AAL) posted a strong gain after TD Cowen upgraded its rating on the airline's stock to Buy from Hold. Significant strength also remained visible among computer hardware and semiconductor stocks, with the NYSE Arca Computer Hardware Index and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index surging by 3.6 percent and 2.8 percent, respectively. Steel and networking stocks also saw notable strength, while considerable weakness emerged among interest-rate sensitive commercial real estate and utilities stocks.

Nasdaq rose 243.3 points or 1.24 percent to 19,864.98 and S&P 500 was up by 32.91 points or 0.55 percent to 5,975.38, while Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 25.57 points or 0.06 percent to 42,706.56.
