The upbeat quarterly prints of Nvidia, Broadcom, and Micron bear testimony to the continued AI frenzy as hyperscalers remain invested in their AI endeavors.

Some positive updates bearing testimony to continued AI momentum include Microsoft earmarking $1.3 billion to boost AI infrastructure and skills in Mexico and Taiwan Semiconductor bagging smartphone chip deals from Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG) (NASDAQ:GOOGL) and Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL).

BofA Securities analyst Justin Post also hailed the latest partnership between rival cloud providers Amazon.Com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN) and Oracle Corp (NYSE:ORCL), which can unlock demand for infrastructure and applications.
