IGV is trading up 2.2% today as NVIDIA's $500M investment in Corning to scale U.S. AI fiber production boosts sentiment across the tech and software sectors.
- The investment aims to strengthen domestic AI infrastructure, building on momentum from recent AMD earnings beats and continued gains in NVDA.
- Risk-on sentiment is supported by a de-escalation in Middle East tensions and a light economic calendar.
- Modest futures strength across major indices is providing additional tailwinds for the tech-heavy ETF in pre-market trading.
