Nasdaq sets record high on AI optimism, oil drops below $100 - reuters.com

Why now

Thesis: AI optimism lifts Nasdaq; sub-$100 oil eases cost pressure

Catalyst to watch: AI earnings and oil price direction

Main risk: Softer oil signals weaker energy demand

Why it matters

AI optimism lifts tech-heavy equities while oil below $100 eases input-cost and inflation pressure, a mix that supports risk assets but signals softer energy demand.
