With the NASDAQ 100, take a look at the left-hand side of the screen, the mega-caps, Apple up more than 2%, Alphabet higher, Tesla more than 5%. We’re also seeing quite a bit of green with the semis, which had been under pressure recently, today seeing some nice gains. Looking at the Ark Innovation ETF holdings, gains across the board there. And if we’re watching the travel stocks, these are also higher as well.
