Nasdaq Smashes ATH Again—Tech Power or Iran Mirage?

Just watched the Nasdaq blast through another all-time high, up 1.63% to 24,836. That April 15% rocket is still got legs, and damn if it doesn't feel like the megacaps are carrying the whole damn show again. S&P tagging 7,255 on a modest 0.65% pop, while the Dow's barely moving at 0.16% to 49,230—classic tech-led grind higher.

What's fueling this? Solid earnings from the big boys, sure, but whispers of US-Iran talks easing oil jitters are giving everyone that extra sigh of relief. Oil's volatile as hell today, but markets are shrugging it off like it's just another headline. Feels like that late-2023 vibe when geopolitics flickered but tech just kept climbing, ignoring the noise.

For traders, this is the sweet spot: momentum's alive, but don't get cocky. Jobs data drops tomorrow, and any Fed hawkishness could clip these wings quick. I'm eyeing if Nasdaq holds above 24,800—break that and we're talking fresh euphoria, but a fade below 24,500 screams trap. Second-order play here: if Iran's hopes fizzle, energy stocks could drag, but semis and cloud names? They're bulletproof right now.

Anyone else feeling the FOMO creep in, or you think this is overstretched? What's your edge on the payroll print?
