Oracle's stock surged 11%, leading a rebound in software shares amid growing hopes for a peace deal between the US and Iran. The software sector had been under pressure this year due to fears of AI disrupting traditional business models and concerns over default risks in private credit. Other major software and cybersecurity companies like Adobe, Salesforce, ServiceNow, and CrowdStrike also saw notable gains. The rally reflects investor optimism despite ongoing worries about AI's impact on software growth and cybersecurity risks.
