What stands out

Schwab Network's Tech Corner put Applied Materials (AMAT) front and center, with George Tsilis tracing how the company is winning business from chipmakers building AI-scale capacity by selling advanced packaging, DRAM, and leading-edge foundry tools. The segment highlights AMAT's record earnings and raised outlook as the fuel for its rally.
