During the opening of the cash session, we see sustained bullish sentiment in the main indices, a slightly stronger dollar, and rebounding yields on U.S. bonds. Once again, tech companies, especially those in the semiconductor sector, are capturing the most investor attention.

U.S. stocks are on track to continue yesterday's gains. Investor sentiment is fueled by strong results from Netflix and United Airlines, as well as the announcement of record AI infrastructure investments by Trump.
Notable gains are seen in Oracle (ORCL.US), Netflix (NFLX.US), and Nvidia (NVDA.US). Apple (AAPL.US) is slightly in the red again, likely due to market speculation or recent profit-taking.

The tech index is off to another strong start, gaining 1.20% at the beginning of the cash session.

Solid quarterly results during the ongoing earnings season on Wall Street also continue to support fundamental investors.
