Shares in Europe and Asia surged after the Dow Jones Industrial Average hit a record high. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 1.1% to 52,900.07, while South Korea's Kospi rose 5.8% to 8,088.34, led by Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix.
Some AI-related stocks rose, while others extended losses. Chip stocks led the rebound in Asian shares, with South Korea's Kospi gaining 2.8% to 7,863.22. However, drops in computer chip companies' shares weighed on Wall Street, despite most US stocks rising.
AMD's stock surged 152% year-to-date, earning a BUY rating and a $590 price target. The company's growth is driven by the MI450 GPU ramp, a 6-gigawatt Meta partnership, and EPYC server revenue growing over 70% in Q2.
Meta's cloud monetization plans contributed to an 8.8% jump in its stock. CrowdStrike also saw a 10.2% surge after a Wells Fargo upgrade and stock split confirmation. Other AI-related companies, such as Datavault AI, saw significant gains, including a proposed partnership with Patriot Strategic Materials LLC.
A study found that investment in artificial intelligence is directly proportional to employment growth. Companies that invest more in AI see greater job creation. The AI industry continues to drive growth, with Innion N.V., a generator builder catering to AI, seeing its stock surge 37% after going public.
