Sales have surged for Super Micro’s servers fitted with Nvidia Corp. chips for artificial intelligence workloads.

- Northrop Grumman (NOC) slips about 3%, snapping two sessions of gains, as a lower effective tax rate helped fuel the defense contractor’s second quarter earnings per share, which beat estimates.
