The broad market index rose 1.8%, setting a fresh high for the first time since June. The Nasdaq Composite surged 2.6%, propelled by a 29% rally in Palantir Technologies. Caterpillar led the Dow's 1.7% gain, climbing 6% after reporting better-than-expected Q2 numbers and raising revenue growth guidance. Other sectors, including financials, industrials, and materials, also demonstrated solid gains.

Palantir's shares surged as the company reported impressive second-quarter earnings, attributed to AI sovereignty demand.",
