Traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange during morning trading on January 22, 2025 in New York City. Stocks continued their upward swing and opened higher a day after the Dow closed up 500 points and the S&P 500 neared an all-time high. This rise comes after OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son, and Oracle CEO Larry Ellison along with President Donald Trump announced that they will create a new company, called Stargate, to grow artificial intelligence infrastructure in the United States.
