- S&P 500 reaches record highs Thursday, topping previous benchmarks amid broad market strength
- NASDAQ completes its longest winning streak since 1992 before stalling as tech sentiment wavers
- IBM surges then reverses course after AI-driven optimism clashes with revenue concerns in latest performance
