Wall Street closes higher as AI stocks rebound on strong earnings

invezz.com (Swedish) —

Wall Street closed higher on Wednesday as strong quarterly results from SpaceX and Super Micro Computer revived investor appetite for AI-related stocks, while a disappointing forecast from Netflix weighed on its shares. The Nasdaq Composite rose 1.05% to 26,702.86. The S&P 500 gained 0.58% to 7,757.22, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 0.69% to 52,856.09. SpaceX shares jumped 7% on a 161% revenue increase and first profit as a public company, while Super Micro rose over 9% after forecasting quarterly revenue and margins above expectations, signaling resilient demand for AI servers. The broader tech sector benefited, with the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index up 1.96% and AMD and Nvidia gaining nearly 4% and over 2%, respectively. Netflix fell 5.3% on weak fourth-quarter guidance and lowered ad revenue outlook, while concerns persist about the long-term profitability of massive AI infrastructure investments.
