What happened
The technology sector led a market rally as the Nasdaq rose 2.26% to 27,122.09 points, marking its first record-high close since June. Chip stocks performed strongly, with Intel gaining 12.2%, Arm Holdings surging 17%, and Advanced Micro Devices gaining about 10%. This market activity occurred while the Federal Reserve signaled further borrowing cost increases, following its decision to raise interest rates for the first time in over three years.
