- Nasdaq led the S&P 500 and Dow higher as tech-sector jitters eased, according to Yahoo Finance's market coverage.
- Chip stocks led Wall Street's gains after a strong prior week, with futures pointing higher across major indices per CNBC and Barron's.
Why it matters: Chip stocks have been central to recent tech-index moves, making their leadership today a meaningful signal. The Nasdaq's outperformance over the Dow and S&P 500 suggests easing pressure on growth-oriented tech names — a shift that matters for anyone benchmarked to those indices.
