TSMC Spurs Tech Revival, Gold Slides From Peak | The Opening Trade 1/15/2026

Technology stocks bounced back on Thursday after TSMC revived confidence in the durability of artificial-intelligence demand. Nasdaq 100 futures swung from losses to a gain after the AI-bellwether said it would lift capital spending by at least a quarter to as much as $56 billion in 2026 and forecast faster-than-expected revenue growth. Tech also lifted Europe’s Stoxx 600 to a fresh record.

A rally that pushed precious metals to fresh peaks cooled on Thursday. Gold, Silver and platinum fell. The weakness spread to base metals, sending copper below $13,000 a ton.
