Today’s Gainers: META Tops US Market Movers
Leading the US market movers today, META posted a notable +4.50% gain, finishing at $777.59. This move outpaced the field, and came without a single clear catalyst indicated in this snapshot. Chipmaker AMD followed, rising +2.38% to $629.26. Financial heavyweight Visa (V) also made the positive list, climbing +1.79% and closing at $367.98. Alphabet (GOOGL) added +1.34%, ending at $342.36.
