Alphabet (GOOGL): The standout winner today, surging +9.96% 2. The strong move is likely driven by positive sentiment from news about its Google Cloud launching a $750M fund to drive AI adoption2, a key differentiating catalyst. It broke above its resistance level of $350.71, showing strong buying pressure.

Tesla (TSLA): Showing resilience with a +2.37% gain. While not at the same level as GOOGL, TSLA is defying the broader tech weakness seen in names like META and NVDA. Its amplitude (4.45%) suggests high volatility and active trading, distinguishing it from steadier names.

⚖️ Moderately Positive / Neutral:

Amazon (AMZN): Edged slightly higher by +0.77% . AMZN's move is a modest gain against a mixed backdrop. It's a more defensive holding within tech today.

Apple (AAPL): Also slightly up +0.44% , trading near its resistance level of $273.42. Its after-hours price is significantly higher ($281.165), suggesting potential positive momentum for the next session.

📉 Weak / Negative Momentum:

NVIDIA (NVDA): Fell sharply by -4.63% , falling through its support level of $182.67 to close at $199.57. This is a significant pullback for the AI bellwether, likely a profit-taking move or reaction to broader sector rotation out of semi-conductors.

Microsoft (MSFT): Declined -3.93% despite positive news about appointing a new LinkedIn CEO2 and its broader AI push2. The stock broke below its support level of $399.28, indicating technical weakness.

Meta Platforms (META): The worst performer, plummeting -8.55% . This massive drop reflects strong selling pressure and is a clear outlier. The stock is now well below its support level of $668.26.
