More gains for makers of computer chips and other AI winners carried Wall Street higher. The S&P 500 rose 0.9% Tuesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.7%, and the Nasdaq composite climbed 1.3%. Micron Technology and Nvidia were the two strongest forces lifting the market as AI stocks climbed for a second straight day after tumbling the week before. Brent crude oil's price got near $92 for the first time in five weeks because of continued attacks in the war with Iran. That’s up from less than $72 early this month and helped push Treasury yields higher in the bond market.
