Microsoft earnings spark global AI‑driven market rally

Microsoft reported quarterly results that beat expectations, highlighted by a 43 % year‑on‑year increase in Azure cloud revenue. The strong earnings lifted Microsoft shares by roughly 15‑17 % in the United States, igniting a broad AI‑related rally.

U.S. equity indexes followed the surge: the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose about 1 % (up 613 points), the S&P 500 gained roughly 1.6 % and the Nasdaq Composite climbed close to 2.8 %. Asian markets also rallied, with Japan’s Nikkei 225 gaining more than 3 %, South Korea’s Kospi jumping around 15 % and Hong‑Kong AI‑related stocks posting double‑digit gains. Semiconductor ETFs and chip makers rose sharply across the region.

The rally occurred as the Federal Reserve left its policy rate unchanged at 3.50‑3.75 % and Treasury yields rose, while oil prices edged higher. The combined effect of the earnings beat and renewed AI optimism lifted risk appetite globally.
