Semiconductor giants Taiwan Semiconductor and ASML posted earnings that defied the previous day's tariff-driven selloff, while labor market data and regional manufacturing indices quietly affirmed that the broader economy had not lost its footing.

Import price increases (0.4% over two months) may prompt inflation monitoring and policy adjustments.
