AI optimism and strong earnings lifted technology stocks, while Nvidia’s 6% monthly gain helped push major indexes higher, analysts said.

- Ulrike Hoffmann-Burchardi, global head of equities at UBS, said the firm retains "strong conviction in the AI growth story" but warned that increasing concentration of market gains reinforces the importance of managing risk through diversification.
