US Indices Hit New Highs After Jobs Report; 7x Nasdaq DLCs in Focus
Wall Street ended higher on Friday as investors digested the December jobs report. Nonfarm payrolls increased by 50,000, missing expectations, while the unemployment rate edged down to 4.4%, signalling a steady but slow-growing labour market.
The $S&P 500(.SPX)$ gained 0.6%, and the $Dow Jones(.DJI)$ rose 0.5%, both hitting new record highs. The $NASDAQ 100(NDX)$ advanced 1.02%, closing just below its October 29 record of 26,119, a key resistance level. A decisive break above this level could open the door for further upside momentum, while failure to clear it may trigger short-term consolidation.
Chipmakers led gains, with $Broadcom(AVGO)$ adding 3.76%, climbing sharply on investor optimism over AI and semiconductor growth. This followed the Semiconductor Industry Association report showing global semiconductor industry sales up 29.8% YoY in November 2025, marking a new all-time high. Tracking the underlying, the AVGO 3x Long DLC rose about 8.3%, while the AVGO 3x Short DLC fell by a similar magnitude.
Among other DLC-covered names, $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ slipped 0.10% while $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ gained 2.11%.
As investors brace for continued policy uncertainty and the upcoming earnings season, they can position themselves using the DLCs to capture directional opportunities across major US indices and single stocks.
