Wall Street Rallies on Robust Jobs Data, Trump AI Backing

Wall Street rallied overnight, rebounding from the previous day's sharp sell-off as investors sought bargains, with the tech-heavy NASDAQ climbing 264.42 points, or 1.09 percent, on Friday, KBS World reports. The rally followed robust jobs data and President Donald Trump's backing of AI investments, though the report does not specify the exact job figures or unemployment rate mentioned in the reader's query. Korean markets, however, were hit by AI investment fears, with the KOSPI briefly dipping below 5,000 on November 6, according to Yonhap. Korean investors and analysts are reacting cautiously, as the surge in DRAM prices from supply shortages is increasing cost burdens on smartphone manufacturers, which could affect display industry investments in new technologies, Business Korea reports. The broader sentiment in Korea reflects concerns over AI-related spending and its impact on tech stocks, even as U.S. markets show strength.
