Market and Stocks

Stocks steady near records — U.S. equities are holding near record highs as the week’s earnings season wraps up, though volatility is rising around monthly options expiration. Big tech strength (like Nvidia and Broadcom) helped offset mixed bank earnings. Investors are eyeing upcoming results from United Airlines, 3M, and Intel. 

Notable stock movers today:
• Micron Technology surged ~7% on strong demand and insider buying.
• AST SpaceMobile jumped ~7% after a federal contract win.
• Constellation Energy & Vistra slid sharply on regulatory cost concerns.
Financials show divergence: PNC Financial up after earnings beat, while State Street and Regions lag.
