AI Demand Stocks were on track for a positive close on Friday, positioning the S&P 500 for a fourth consecutive weekly gain.

Intel and AMD are prominent in data center CPUs, with Arm Holdings also participating in this sector.
next earnings report is scheduled for May 6. Rising demand for CPUs is expected to provide an advantage to Amazon and Alphabet through their in-house silicon developments, such as AWS Graviton and Google Axion, both based on Arm technology. Meta announced an agreement to deploy at least tens of millions of Graviton cores, which will generate royalties for Arm.
