TREE NEWS reports: US stocks opened higher, with the Nasdaq up 1.5% and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index up nearly 3%. Generac surged about 31% after Amazon received warrants to buy up to $340 million of its stock, while Nebius gained about 10% after saying it will raise GPU cloud pricing by an average of 20% from October 1. Storage-chip and optical-communications shares also rose broadly.
Nasdaq Jumps 1.5% as Chips, Optics Rally; Generac Soars 31% on Amazon Warrant
The Generac-Amazon warrant structure is the notable signal here: a hyperscaler taking equity exposure in a power-equipment supplier ties data-center buildout demand to the electrical side of the stack, not just chips. Nebius raising GPU cloud pricing by an average of 20% points to tightening compute supply economics, which is consistent with the broad strength in optics and storage names. Whether pricing power holds as capacity expands is the open question.
