TL;DR Summary

The stock market rallied, led by tech stocks, despite rising Treasury yields and the Fed signaling slower rate cuts. Super Micro Computer (SMCI) surged on strong preliminary results, while Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM) led chip stocks higher with bullish 2024 guidance. Apple reclaimed its market cap crown from Microsoft, which edged up in a buy zone. However, Tesla undercut recent lows due to price cuts, while Humana (HUM) guided lower on earnings, causing health insurers to retreat. Dow Jones futures were flat, and Super Micro raised its earnings guidance, citing strong market demand for AI and IT solutions. The market remains in a range, with some stocks flashing buy signals, but caution is advised as earnings season approaches.
