US equities moved higher on Wednesday, with the S&P 500 approaching a fresh all-time intraday high.<\/p>\n

Investor sentiment improved on expectations that the Iran conflict could be nearing a resolution.<\/p>\n

The benchmark index rose 0.2% and was on track for a record close, while the Nasdaq Composite advanced 0.3%. <\/p>\n

The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 157 points, or 0.3%, reflecting broad-based strength across equities.<\/p>\n

Optimism around Iran conflict lifts sentiment<\/h2>\n

Market participants appeared encouraged by signs of potential diplomatic progress between the United States and Iran. <\/p>\n

President Donald Trump said earlier in the week that negotiations may be underway.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve been called by the other side,\u201d Trump said, adding, \u201cThey\u2019d like to make a deal very badly.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a separate interview, Trump stated that the conflict is \u201cvery close to over\u201d and reiterated that Iran is seeking an agreement. <\/p>\n

These comments helped reinforce expectations that geopolitical tensions, which had weighed on markets since late February, could ease in the near term.<\/p>\n

The rebound has been notable. Wednesday\u2019s gains follow a strong run in recent sessions, with the S&P 500 now nearing its previous all-time high of 7,002.28 reached on Jan. 28. <\/p>\n

Tuesday marked the index\u2019s ninth positive session in 10, while the Nasdaq Composite extended its rally to a 10th consecutive day of gains.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, the S&P 500 erased all losses incurred since the start of the Iran conflict, underscoring the market\u2019s resilience amid geopolitical uncertainty.<\/p>\n

Major gainers today<\/h2>\n

Among individual stocks, Broadcom emerged as a key gainer, rising 2% during the session. <\/p>\n

The move followed news that Meta Platforms had expanded its partnership with the chipmaker to deploy custom chips built using Broadcom\u2019s technology.<\/p>\n

The development provided additional support to the technology sector, which has been a primary driver of the broader market rally in recent sessions.<\/p>\n

Financial stocks also contributed to the positive momentum after major US banks reported quarterly results that exceeded expectations.<\/p>\n

Shares of Morgan Stanley rose more than 2%<\/a> in early trading after the firm posted first-quarter earnings of $3.43 per share on revenue of $20.58 billion. <\/p>\n

Analysts surveyed by LSEG had expected earnings of $3 per share on revenue of $19.72 billion.<\/p>\n

Similarly, Bank of America shares gained more than 1%<\/a> after reporting earnings of $1.11 per share on revenue of $30.43 billion, surpassing analyst estimates of $1.01 per share and $29.93 billion in revenue.<\/p>\n

The bank\u2019s performance was supported by strength in its equity sales and trading business, contributing to the overall positive tone in financial stocks.<\/p>\n

The combination of easing geopolitical concerns, strong corporate earnings, and continued strength in technology stocks has helped sustain the market\u2019s upward trajectory.<\/p>\n

Investors remain focused on developments surrounding the Iran conflict, with any confirmation of a diplomatic resolution likely to serve as a further catalyst for equities.
