Stocks are trading in the green during Thursday's afternoon session, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) reaching a new record high, while the S&P 500 (^GSPC) and Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) are also posting gains. This comes despite Nvidia's (NVDA) stock decline after its second-quarter results failed to impress investors.

Meanwhile, Affirm (AFRM) shares are surging after strong fourth-quarter results and a forecast of profitability by the fourth quarter of the next fiscal year. Newly appointed Affirm COO Michael Linford is set to speak with Yahoo Finance later today.

Yahoo Finance trending tickers include SoFi Technologies (SOFI), Okta, Inc. (OKTA), and Dollar General Corporation (DG).
