US Stock Market Today: Why the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Are Hitting Fresh Highs

US Stock Market Today: Why the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Are Hitting Fresh Highs

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite notched new highs on Friday, carrying forward Wall Street’s April comeback. Apple and software names did the heavy lifting, more than offsetting a slight dip in the Dow. According to Reuters market data, the S&P 500 climbed 0.48% to 7,243.34, the Nasdaq jumped 0.96% to 25,131.26, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 0.11% to 49,599.01. It’s a pivotal moment: investors are essentially betting that corporate profits will keep propping up the market, even as oil prices climb, tariffs loom, and interest rates turn less favorable. Analysts are now projecting S&P 500 earnings for the first quarter to jump 27.8% from a year ago — that’s the fastest growth since Q4 of 2021, according to LSEG IBES data.

Salesforce Expands Google Cloud AI Partnership as CRM Stock Slides in Software Selloff

Salesforce Expands Google Cloud AI Partnership as CRM Stock Slides in Software Selloff

Salesforce and Google Cloud on Wednesday rolled out fresh integrations, deepening their AI tie-up. Now, Salesforce’s Agentforce AI agents—designed for multi-step tasks with little human help—are plugging into Slack, Google Workspace, and Gemini Enterprise. The stock tumbled around 9% Thursday, showing investors remain unconvinced that these AI moves will drive reliable, long-term growth. This is a tough spot for Salesforce. LSEG’s analyst survey points to the company posting its quickest revenue jump in over three years. Still, the software and services index has dropped roughly 16% since January—investors remain nervous that AI might eat into the old-line software business. ServiceNow kicked off earnings for the big SaaS players; Workday and Salesforce are next up.

Salesforce Stock News: Choreo and Sumitomo Mitsui Cuts Resurface, but the Filings Are Months Old

Salesforce Stock News: Choreo and Sumitomo Mitsui Cuts Resurface, but the Filings Are Months Old

Salesforce Inc. faced a new round of questions Monday after reports called out recent stake reductions by Choreo LLC and Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Group. But according to SEC filings dated Jan. 23, both firms were actually reporting their positions as of Dec. 31—there’s no indication of April sales. Choreo listed 27,733 shares, a stake then worth about $7.37 million. Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Group, on its part, revealed 2,478,864 shares valued near $656.7 million. Investors keep digging through old portfolio data, hoping to spot patterns as AI jitters start hitting software stocks again. Salesforce climbed roughly 3.4% to $170.58 in early Monday trading. Still, the S&P 500 software and services index lags—down 25.5% for the year. Anthropic’s new model has put fresh AI disruption worries back in focus, with Steve Sosnick at Interactive Brokers calling it a case of those concerns "coming back to the fore."

Dow Jones Today: Industrial Average Climbs as Oil Retreats, but Inflation Risk Keeps Wall Street Wary

Dow Jones Today: Industrial Average Climbs as Oil Retreats, but Inflation Risk Keeps Wall Street Wary

By 12:40 p.m. ET on Thursday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 247.66 points, or 0.52%, at 48,155.97, tacking on to Wednesday’s massive 1,326-point rally as new indications of easing Middle East tensions calmed Wall Street nerves. The S&P 500 climbed 0.50%, while the Nasdaq Composite advanced 0.60%. On Thursday, headlines continued to drive market moves. The prior day’s rally had followed a two-week ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran, yet traders weren't convinced the truce would last, or that shipments through the Strait of Hormuz—responsible for roughly 20% of the world’s oil and gas—would resume typical volumes.

US Stock Market Today: Wall Street Rises Again, but Oil and Fed Fears Keep the Rally on Edge

US Stock Market Today: Wall Street Rises Again, but Oil and Fed Fears Keep the Rally on Edge

Stocks climbed Thursday afternoon, with crude oil paring back earlier gains and optimism over a potential U.S.-Iran ceasefire calming some nerves. As of 1 p.m. Eastern, the Dow Jones Industrial Average had advanced 337 points, or 0.7%. The S&P 500 was also up 0.6%, and the Nasdaq Composite tacked on 0.7%. The shift proved significant. Earlier, the ceasefire bounce had shown signs of unraveling. Oil spiked toward $103 a barrel in the morning, but prices quickly retreated after Israel announced plans for direct talks with Lebanon—a headline that steadied both crude and broader risk assets.

Salesforce Stock Hits Fresh 52-Week Low Despite AI Growth and $50 Billion Buyback

Salesforce Stock Hits Fresh 52-Week Low Despite AI Growth and $50 Billion Buyback

Salesforce shares dropped to a new 52-week low Thursday, deepening a selloff that’s stretched on for months—even as the company delivered strong quarterly numbers and flagged rapid uptake of its AI offerings. By 10:46 a.m. ET, the stock was off 3.7% at $169.76, after touching $167.17 earlier in the session and breaking below its previous 52-week low of $174.57, according to Salesforce’s investor site. This isn’t just about a single stock. Worries that AI breakthroughs could erode established subscription models have been hammering software names, with the S&P 500 software and services index losing roughly $1 trillion since Jan. 28. The sector has dropped 28% from late October.

Dow Jones Today: Index Rises 300 Points as Oil Retreats Before Fed

Dow Jones Today: Index Rises 300 Points as Oil Retreats Before Fed

Stocks bounced Monday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average recovering 332.93 points, or 0.72%, to 46,891.40 after last week’s losses. The S&P 500 advanced 0.97%, and the Nasdaq climbed 1.26%, according to Reuters market data. The bounce comes just as nerves are fraying. The Dow slipped 119.38 points Friday, capping a losing week, and the Federal Reserve is set to keep its key rate stuck at 3.50%-3.75% this Wednesday. Traders now see just a quarter-point of rate cuts this year—less than half the easing priced in before the Iran conflict. "Investors had avoided riskier parts of the bond market" as prospects dimmed, said Danny Zaid at TwentyFour Asset Management.

Salesforce’s $50 Billion Buyback Triggers Moody’s Downgrade, S&P Warning

Salesforce’s $50 Billion Buyback Triggers Moody’s Downgrade, S&P Warning

Salesforce found itself under renewed credit pressure Tuesday as Moody’s lowered its rating to A2—still within investment grade, but a notch down. S&P Global Ratings kept its A+ rating in place, though it shifted the outlook to negative. Shares slipped $2.61 to $196.18 during morning trade. Salesforce is facing new scrutiny less than two weeks after rolling out an ambitious payout strategy. According to Bloomberg, the company is lining up a potential $25 billion debt offering to bankroll share buybacks—a move that could prop up the stock but may also push its borrowing risk higher.

Salesforce leadership breaks silence on Benioff ICE-joke backlash as AI fears bite

Salesforce leadership breaks silence on Benioff ICE-joke backlash as AI fears bite

Salesforce President Robin Washington told employees on Thursday the company is “appropriately adjusting” after CEO Marc Benioff’s ICE jokes stirred internal backlash, according to audio from an all-hands reviewed by Business Insider. Washington, who is also chief operating officer and CFO, told staff, “What unites us is our values.” Cofounder Parker Harris weighed in during the meeting, saying, “Marc made a very bad joke” and that he was “not OK with it,” the report said. Salesforce did not immediately respond to a request for comment. San Francisco’s software giant is grappling with a complicated stretch. As layoffs ripple through tech, it’s pushing workers and clients to zero in on a sweeping AI pivot. At the same time, executives are catching fresh heat over what they say in public.

Salesforce launches Agentforce Health AI agents to cut healthcare paperwork, adding HealthEx, Verily and Viz.ai

Salesforce launches Agentforce Health AI agents to cut healthcare paperwork, adding HealthEx, Verily and Viz.ai

Salesforce on Thursday introduced six fresh Agentforce Health agents — AI tools built to operate within healthcare workflows — ramping up the company’s push into the sector. The new agents handle tasks from referrals and assessments to EHR read-and-write, claims and coverage processes, rural health, epidemiology, and hospital operations. Salesforce is also tying in integrations with HealthEx, Verily, and Viz.ai. Some templates are up for grabs now; others are scheduled to land in June and later this year. Dr. Paramjit “Romi” Chopra, founder and CEO of MIMIT Health, pegged the return at “459% ROI” with $1.5 million in savings. Salesforce is rolling out a rebrand of its Health Cloud platform, now calling it Agentforce Health. The move fits into the company’s bigger “agentic” AI strategy — not just responding to queries, but actually getting things done. “How do we remove workload, bureaucratic processes?” Salesforce health lead Amit Khanna asked in a conversation with TechTarget. For Salesforce client Chopra, it’s all about pinpointing the biggest time sink: “What’s a process that I waste so much time on?” IDC’s Jennifer Eaton noted that employees are raising the same question more often: “Why can’t I use AI … to save time in my
