Semiconductors continued leading the market higher, even after hotter-than-expected inflation reports pushed Treasury yields to their highest levels since mid-2025. Tom highlights how growth stocks, especially semis, continue attracting aggressive money flow while much of the market lags behind. He also highlights Nvidia’s powerful earnings-month history, talks leading industry groups, and explains why relative strength remains one of the most important signals in this market.
