U.S. Stock Indices Close Higher as Nasdaq Leads the Upside With Over 1% Gain

The U.S. stock market showed renewed strength overnight, with all three major indices closing in positive territory. The Nasdaq Composite led the rally, climbing over 1%, driven by strong performances in large-cap tech stocks and a rebound in semiconductor names. The S&P 500 followed with a 0.43% gain, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.57%, reflecting a broad recovery across multiple sectors.

Investors appeared to regain confidence amid easing treasury yields and improving corporate earnings sentiment. The tech-heavy Nasdaq benefited most from risk-on flows, as traders positioned ahead of key macro data and upcoming Federal Reserve commentary.

With the Nasdaq now posting its best intraday recovery this week, traders are closely watching whether this momentum could extend into the next session — or if short-term resistance near recent highs will slow the climb.
