  • Stocks Rise on Chip Sector Gains Amid Mixed Market Signals
    January 27, 2026, 12:04 PM EST. U.S. stock indexes mostly advanced, with the S&P 500 up 0.22% reaching a 1.5-week high, and the Nasdaq 100 gaining 0.44% hitting a 2.75-month peak. Chipmakers spurred the rally: Micron Technology soared 4% on plans for a $24 billion investment in Singapore to expand memory-chip capacity. Conversely, the Dow Jones fell 0.64%, pressured by health insurer declines after UnitedHealth forecast 2026 revenue contraction and government moves to freeze Medicare payments. Bond yields edged higher, adding bearish pressure. Political risks including threats of 100% tariffs on Canadian imports, potential U.S. government shutdown over ICE funding, and uncertainties around Federal Reserve policy ahead of the FOMC meeting weighed on sentiment. Market eyes now turn to consumer confidence data and Fed Chair Powell's remarks later this week.
