As global markets anticipate diplomatic breakthroughs that could reshape the inflationary landscape, the semiconductor sector witnessed a notable divergence in performance. Nvidia (NVDA) shares declined 0.75% to $209.11 as investors weighed the impact of US-Iran peace talks on energy prices and Federal Reserve policy. Conversely, Intel (INTC) surged 4.9% to a new all-time high, while AMD gained 1.1% amid optimism regarding AI hardware demand.
