Stocks rally to record highs on Iran talks, strong earnings, and tech rebound

Wall Street surged with the S&P 500 closing above 7,700 for the first time, driven by optimistic Iran negotiations, robust Q2 earnings growth, and a broad tech sector rally. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's comments on a potential deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz eased oil price concerns, boosting market confidence. Earnings reports showed a 27% growth excluding major tech, supporting further gains. Technical breakout and momentum shifts after a major fund's forced sell-off also contributed to the rally, with analysts optimistic about continued market strength through year-end.
