Wall Street closed higher on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, with demand for a Meta share sale aimed at expanding artificial intelligence investment drawing large sums of money, according to 연합인포맥스.
The Nasdaq Composite climbed 308.43 points, or 1.18%, to finish at 26,477.81 at the New York Stock Exchange. The S&P 500 rose 45.83 points, or 0.60%, to 7,722.60, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 15.99 points, or 0.03%, to close at 52,377.57.
The session's gains came as investors put money into Meta's equity offering, which the company is using to fund a larger AI investment program, 연합인포맥스 reported. The scale of the demand made the offering a central driver of the day's trading.
Earlier coverage from the same outlet and other Korean financial media described a mixed open as markets waited on the Federal Reserve's policy decision, with falling oil prices and strength in semiconductor shares shaping the early tone. By the close, the tech-heavy Nasdaq had posted the strongest advance of the three main indexes.
The reporting did not specify the size of Meta's offering or the amount the company intends to spend on AI. Those figures were not included in the source material.
Investors will now watch whether the Fed's decision and the flow of big-tech earnings sustain the AI-driven momentum that lifted the Nasdaq on Tuesday.
