US equities were mixed on Tuesday as broad-based support from the deal between the US and Iran offset a fresh pullback for the AI infrastructure sector.

The S&P 500 edged below the flatline.

The Dow rose 500 points to a new record, but losses in tech drove the Nasdaq to fall 1.5%.

Despite inconsistencies in the terms of the deal, the US and Iran were still due to sign the agreement on Friday, with US authorities stating the Strait of Hormuz will reopen.

Bond yields pulled back further as the development softened pro-inflationary concerns ahead of the Fed's likely rate hold tomorrow, although Chairman Warsh may continue to push for monetary framework overhauls and a lower balance sheet.

JPMorgan jumped 3.2% and Visa gained 2%.

SpaceX gained 8% to rise 40% since its IPO on Friday following news it will acquire Cursor for $60 billion.

On the other hand, markets took profits from speculative positions in chip producers.

Broadcom, Micron, AMD, and Intel lost up to 6%, while Nvidia fell 2%.

US Stocks Hold Rally
US equity indices were little changed on Tuesday, holding their three-session rally after the US and Iran said they agreed to a deal that ends the conflict and reestablishes energy exports from the Persian Gulf. The S&P 500 edged higher and the Dow rose 350 points to extend its record high, while the Nasdaq 100 was lower.
