The Dow added 0.45% to a record 51,308, lagging tech but lifted by the broad risk-on tone.

Its value tilt means the Dow rides the rally without the semiconductor turbocharge — steady rather than spectacular.

51,000 is first support; rotation breadth will decide whether the Dow keeps pace with the Nasdaq.

Silver firmed 0.4% to $75.31, edging higher but still roughly a third below its cycle peak.

Silver lags gold's central-bank bid; it needs industrial and AI-hardware demand to close the gap with the yellow metal.

$74 support and $78 resistance bracket the move; a gold breakout would likely drag silver with it.
