🚀 Oracle reignites the AI sector

The Wall Street trading session on September 11 was dominated by artificial intelligence and left mixed impressions. The main event was a sharp surge in Oracle (ticker ORCL), which gained more than 36% after reporting record AI-related order backlogs. Investors saw this as clear evidence that demand for AI infrastructure is not only stable but accelerating rapidly.

What happened in the markets

• Nasdaq and S&P 500 hit new record highs during the day but gave up most of the gains by the close.
  
  
  
• The Dow Jones finished down 0.5%, while the Russell 2000 fell 0.2%.
• Charts recorded a so-called stalling day — when an index hits a new high on heavy volume but closes flat or lower, typically seen as a sign of institutional selling.

Key events of the day

• Oracle announced a multiyear $300 billion contract with OpenAI for cloud capacity. This was a major catalyst for the sector.
  
  
  
  
• Other players followed Oracle’s move upward: Nvidia (+3.8%), Taiwan Semiconductor (+3.8%), Vertiv, GE Vernova, and Comfort Systems.
• Other sectors looked weaker as investors rotated capital out of “old economy” stocks into high-tech.
  
• Oil rose 1.7%, gold strengthened, and cryptocurrencies also gained.

• From the macroeconomic side, the key highlight is the Producer Price Index (PPI), which unexpectedly declined by 0.1% against expectations of an increase. This points to easing inflationary pressures at the wholesale level and could influence the Federal Reserve’s policy. Market participants are now focused on today’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) report, which will serve as a key indicator for the regulator’s next decisions.

What it means for investors

• AI remains the main growth driver of the US stock market.
  
  
  
• Attractive entry points: Nvidia at 177–180 USD support (target 190–195, stop below 172), TSM consolidating in a breakout zone.
• Despite the appeal of the AI story, diversification should not be ignored. Energy, gold, and the industrial sector through ETFs can provide balance to a portfolio and serve as protection in the event of a correction in the technology market.

💡 Conclusion
Oracle once again proved that artificial intelligence is not hype but a fundamental trend shaping a multi-trillion-dollar market. However, outside the AI sector, conditions remain weaker, so the main recommendation is to maintain balance between tech-driven growth stories and defensive assets.
