在科技股和小型股的帶動下，美國股市在樂觀情緒中飆升

美國股市週四午盤大幅上漲，主要股指上漲。正如聯準會主席鮑威爾所證實的那樣，積極情緒源於企業盈利前景樂觀且沒有升息。標普 500 指數上漲 0.3%，納斯達克 100 指數在半導體強勁表現的帶動下上漲 0.6%，表現優於大盤。小型股也表現良好，iShares Russell 2000 ETF 上漲 1%。

U.S. Stock Markets Surge Amid Optimism, Led by Tech and Small Caps

在科技股和小型股的帶動下，美國股市在樂觀情緒中飆升

In the heart of New York City's financial district, a surge of bullish sentiment propelled U.S. stock markets to impressive heights during Thursday's midday trading session. The catalyst for this market rally was a symphony of positive signals emanating from corporate earnings reports and the reassuring words of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, who assuaged fears of an impending rate increase.

在紐約市金融區的中心地帶，看漲情緒高漲，推動美國股市在周四午盤交易時段達到令人印象深刻的高度。這次市場反彈的催化劑是企業獲利報告發出的正面訊號和聯準會主席鮑威爾的安撫言論，緩解了人們對即將升息的擔憂。

The S&P 500, a barometer of the broader U.S. equity market, inched upward by 0.3% to trade at 5,028.09 by 12:30 p.m. ET. The tech-heavy Nasdaq 100 outperformed its peers, advancing by 0.6% to 17,396.76. Notably, the semiconductor industry shone brightly, buoyed by robust quarterly results and optimistic forward guidance from Qualcomm Inc. As a result, the iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX) rose by a significant 1.2%, reversing a 3.4% loss from the previous session.

截至中午 12 點 30 分，作為美國股市晴雨表的標準普爾 500 指數小幅上漲 0.3%，至 5,028.09 點。等。以科技股為主的那斯達克指數 100 指數表現優於同業，上漲 0.6%，至 17,396.76 點。值得注意的是，在強勁的季度業績和高通公司樂觀的前瞻性指引的推動下，半導體行業表現亮麗。

The trend was similar in the small-cap segment, with the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (IWM) gaining 1% to 2,000.82. This outperformance of smaller companies over their larger counterparts can be attributed to their relative valuation attractiveness and growth potential.

小型股的趨勢也類似，iShares Russell 2000 ETF (IWM) 上漲 1%，至 2,000.82 點。小公司的表現優於大公司，可歸因於它們的相對估值吸引力和成長潛力。

The bond market also experienced a subtle shift, with Treasury yields trending slightly lower. This move reflected a reduction in market anxiety over potential interest rate hikes, following Wednesday's Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting. The policy-sensitive 2-year yield declined to 4.9%, down from 5.05% the previous day.

債券市場也經歷了微妙的轉變，國債殖利率小幅走低。此舉反映出週三聯邦公開市場委員會（FOMC）會議後市場對潛在升息的焦慮有所減輕。政策敏感的2年期公債殖利率從前一天的5.05%跌至4.9%。

In the realm of commodities, gold prices took a hit, dropping by 0.8% to $1,865.11 per ounce. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) light crude oil also retreated, falling by 0.5% to trade at $78 per barrel. This marked its lowest closing level since March 13, 2024, signaling a continued decline in energy prices.

大宗商品方面，金價下跌 0.8%，至每盎司 1,865.11 美元。西德州中質原油 (WTI) 輕質原油也下跌 0.5%，至每桶 78 美元。這是自 2024 年 3 月 13 日以來的最低收盤水平，表明能源價格持續下跌。

Bitcoin, the leading cryptocurrency, managed a modest rebound, climbing to $59,000 from a low of $56,500 on Wednesday. However, its volatility remained elevated, reflecting ongoing uncertainty in the digital asset market.

領先的加密貨幣比特幣小幅反彈，從週三的 56,500 美元低點攀升至 59,000 美元。然而，其波動性仍較高，反映出數位資產市場持續的不確定性。

Sectoral Performance and Stock Movers

產業表現與股票走勢

The Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLK) led the sectoral charge, posting a 0.7% gain. This was followed by the Consumer Staples Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLP), which rose by 0.6%. Conversely, the Materials Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLB) lagged behind, shedding 1%.

科技精選行業 SPDR 基金 (XLK) 領漲行業，上漲 0.7%。其次是必需消費品精選行業 SPDR 基金 (XLP)，上漲 0.6%。相反，Materials Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLB) 表現落後，下跌 1%。

In the realm of individual stocks, Linde plc (LIN) plunged by 5.8% after missing quarterly revenue estimates. Other notable movers included ConocoPhillips (COP), which declined by 1.6%, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals (REGN), which jumped by 3.8%, and Cigna Group (CI), which dropped by 2.4%.

個股方面，林德 (LIN) 因季度營收未達預期而暴跌 5.8%。其他值得注意的推動者包括康菲石油公司 (COP)，下跌 1.6%，再生元製藥 (REGN)，上漲 3.8%，以及信諾集團 (CI)，下跌 2.4%。

Positive earnings reports propelled Zoetis Inc. (ZTS) and Moderna Inc. (MRNA) upward by 6% and 9%, respectively. Conversely, Moody's Corporation (MCO) and MetLife Inc. (MET) faced headwinds, falling by 1% and 4%, respectively.

積極的獲利報告推動 Zoetis Inc. (ZTS) 和 Moderna Inc. (MRNA) 分別上漲 6% 和 9%。相反，穆迪公司 (MCO) 和大都會人壽保險公司 (MET) 則面臨逆風，分別下跌 1% 和 4%。

Earnings Season in Full Swing

財報季如火如荼地進行

With earnings season in full swing, investors eagerly await results from a slew of prominent companies scheduled to report after the market closes on Thursday. These include Apple Inc. (AAPL), Amgen Inc. (AMGN), Booking Holdings Inc. (BKNG), EOG Resources Inc. (EOG), MercadoLibre Inc. (MELI), Pioneer Natural Resource Company (PXD), Monster Beverage Corporation (MNST), Coinbase Global Inc. (COIN), and Fortinet Inc. (FTNT).

隨著財報季如火如荼地進行，投資人熱切等待眾多知名公司定於週四收盤後公佈的業績。其中包括蘋果 (AAPL)、安進 (AMGN)、Booking Holdings Inc. (BKNG)、EOG Resources Inc. (EOG)、MercadoLibre Inc. (MELI)、Pioneer Natural Resource Company (PXD)、Monster Beverage Corporation ( MNST)、Coinbase Global Inc. (COIN) 和Fortinet Inc. (FTNT)。

The market's performance in the coming days will hinge heavily on these earnings reports and any additional economic data that may shed light on the trajectory of the economy. The combination of rising corporate profits and a dovish stance from the Federal Reserve has created a favorable backdrop for stocks. However, continued uncertainty surrounding inflation, geopolitical tensions, and supply chain disruptions could test the market's resilience in the weeks and months to come.

未來幾天的市場表現將在很大程度上取決於這些收益報告以及任何可能揭示經濟軌蹟的其他經濟數據。企業利潤上升和聯準會的鴿派立場結合，為股市創造了有利的背景。然而，圍繞通膨、地緣政治緊張局勢和供應鏈中斷的持續不確定性可能會在未來幾週和幾個月內考驗市場的彈性。
