The primary narrative driving the market was optimism surrounding a potential <strong>US-China trade deal<\/strong>, with Presidents <strong>Donald Trump<\/strong> and <strong>Xi Jinping<\/strong> expected to finalize an agreement this week after officials reported a &quot;successful framework&quot; and &quot;preliminary consensus&quot; over the weekend. This positive trade outlook was complemented by strong expectations of another <strong>Federal Reserve interest rate cut<\/strong> later this week, following cooler-than-expected inflation data released on Friday. Additionally, the market is keenly awaiting a heavy slate of <strong>Big Tech earnings<\/strong> reports from several &quot;Magnificent Seven&quot; companies throughout the week.<\/p>\n<p>Among the Dow&#39;s components, technology and financial sectors saw notable gains. <strong>Nvidia<\/strong> (<a href=\"\/stock\/NVDA\">NVDA<\/a>) led the advancers, climbing <strong>2.53%<\/strong> to <strong>$190.9900<\/strong>.
