Shares of tech giants like Apple (AAPL), Amazon (AMZN), Google parent Alphabet (GOOG), and Meta (META) all saw shares trade higher. Shares of chipmaker AMD (AMD) also rallied after an upgrade from Oppenheimer. 
  • Skydance (SKYD) reported its first quarterly earnings since its major merger of Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery.

Discovery Inc. Shares of Skydance fell in extended trading in New York.
  • Nvidia (NVDA), the world’s second-most valuable company and the US chipmaker at the heart of the global AI industry, is facing a crisis like none other in its three-decade history.
