Semiconductor stocks hit a record — here’s what could move SOXX next week

New York, January 10, 2026, 12:53 — Market closed U.S. semiconductor stocks drove Wall Street to a record close Friday, with the iShares Semiconductor ETF climbing 2.9% to $328.78, after swinging between $319.35 and $330.66. The PHLX semiconductor index, which tracks major chipmakers, surged 2.7% to a new high. Broadcom gained 3.8%, Lam Research jumped 8.7% following Mizuho’s price target hike to $220 from $200, and Intel rallied nearly 11%. The boost came after President Donald Trump described a “great meeting” with CEO Lip-Bu Tan. “Investors are getting granular and picking the winners and losers” in AI, noted Zachary Hill of Horizon Investments.

Dow and S&P 500 hit fresh record closes as chip rally shrugs off tariff noise

U.S. stocks closed at record highs on Friday, with the S&P 500 ending up 0.65% at 6,966.28 and the Dow up 0.48% at 49,504.07, as chipmakers led a broad push higher to wrap the first full week of 2026. The Nasdaq gained 0.82% to 23,671.35, and the PHLX semiconductor index jumped 2.7% to a record; Broadcom rose 3.8% and Vistra surged after Meta agreed to buy power from its nuclear plants. “Investors are getting granular and picking the winners and losers,” said Zachary Hill, head of portfolio management at Horizon Investments. The rally came with investors trying to map the next Federal Reserve move after the unemployment rate fell to 4.4% in December even as job gains missed forecasts. Traders in rate futures cut expectations for near-term easing, with one Reuters tally showing a 44% chance of a cut by April, and bets shifting toward June; Richmond Fed President Thomas Barkin said “the low-hire environment continues,” while Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic said, “Inflation is still too high.”

S&P 500 hits record, chip stocks jump — jobs report and Trump tariff case set up next market move

The S&P 500 closed at a record on Friday as Broadcom and other chip stocks kept Wall Street climbing after a softer-than-expected U.S. jobs report. The index rose 0.65% to 6,966.28, while the Nasdaq gained 0.82% to 23,671.35 and the Dow added 0.48% to 49,504.07; the PHLX semiconductor index, which tracks major chipmakers, jumped 2.7% to a record. “On the overall AI theme, investors are getting granular,” said Zachary Hill at Horizon Investments, as Lam Research surged after Mizuho lifted its price target and Vistra rallied on a power deal with Meta. The labor data mattered because it set the tone for the next Fed meeting and for how traders price rate cuts in 2026. Nonfarm payrolls — jobs outside farming — rose by 50,000 in December, below economists’ forecast of 60,000, after a downwardly revised 56,000 in November. The unemployment rate dipped to 4.4% and wages rose 3.8% from a year earlier, and “all roads lead to the unemployment rate … it should douse the Fed’s recent urgency,” Fitch Ratings’ Olu Sonola said.
