Microsoft surged 3.47% to $426.99, the day's mega-cap leader on a multibillion-dollar Pentagon software deal report from Dell. Azure/AI demand stack stays in play.

MSFT is monetizing every AI angle — government, enterprise, OpenAI partnership. The Pentagon deal validates Azure's defense vertical, the highest-margin durable revenue stream available to a hyperscaler.

Whether the deal headline gets confirmed/expanded. $430 is the breakout level; clean print opens $440. Support $420. AI capex commentary from peers will matter into next earnings.

Tesla closed at $442.10 (+0.40%), drifting higher with the broader Nasdaq. SpaceX-merger overhang dominated the news flow; production headlines absent.

TSLA is trading as a SpaceX-merger event rather than a fundamental EV story right now — shareholders are pricing dilution risk versus optionality. Robotaxi narrative is on the bench until next datapoint.

Any official SpaceX-merger terms or Musk commentary. June delivery numbers loom. Resistance $450; support $432. Break of $430 would be the first technical warning.
