IT stocks rise as Nvidia lifts AI optimism, Jackson Hole speech in focus
Indian information technology stocks rose by as much as 5% on Thursday, supported by renewed optimism around artificial intelligence after Nvidia's latest developments. The move comes as AI-linked sentiment continues to influence technology shares globally, including outsourcing and services names that are closely watched for signals on future enterprise spending.
Global markets are also awaiting Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh's speech at the Jackson Hole economic symposium later today for clues on the central bank's approach to inflation and interest rates, a backdrop that remains important for rate-sensitive sectors and broader risk appetite.
The rally came as investors watched shares of LTIMindtree, TCS and Coforge among other IT names move higher in early trade.
