Live Nasdaq Composite: Tech Stocks Out Front in FOMO Trade as Strait of Hormuz Reopens
"The markets are advancing out of the gate on reports that the end of the Mideast conflict is within sight. President Trump has signaled that the war will be over 'pretty soon,' while Iran has reopened the critical Strait of Hormuz for oil shipments."
"Netflix is a drag, sinking 9.4% on the heels of its earnings print. The content streaming giant's Q1 beat estimates but its Q2 outlook fell short of Wall Street expectations."
"Morgan Stanley is backing UnitedHealth with conviction, elevating the health insurance giant to Top Pick. The move isn't a bet on any single quarter but on what the analysts predict will be 'a string of clean quarters that should drive incremental enthusiasm.'"
"Polestar just posted its worst annual loss ever, swinging to a $2.36 billion net loss in 2025, wider than the $2.05 billion it lost the year prior and marking the EV maker's deepest financial hole yet."
The stock markets are advancing with the Dow Jones, Nasdaq, and S&P 500 all showing gains. President Trump indicated a possible end to the Mideast conflict, and Iran has reopened the Strait of Hormuz for oil shipments. A proposal to unfreeze $20 billion in Iranian funds is under consideration. Netflix's stock fell 9.4% after disappointing Q2 outlook, while Morgan Stanley has upgraded UnitedHealth. Polestar reported a significant annual loss, while Boeing is hiring amid industry layoffs.
