S&P 500 Hits Record High Amid AI Financing Hopes and Drone Tariffs

The S&P 500 index hit a record high in its previous session, but stock market futures remained muted on Friday. According to Goldman Sachs, the company is considering financing options for AI projects.

Meanwhile, President Trump announced that the US will impose tariffs on drones imported from China, citing national security concerns. The move could impact various companies, including those involved in drone technology such as Nvidia and AeroVironment.

The developments come as investors watch Apple's plans to integrate AI into its China-based operations, a move seen as crucial for the company's growth strategy.
