The S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) is in the green on Tuesday, thanks in part to three stocks each soaring to new all-time record highs.

So, what’s been going right for the trio lately? Let’s take a look.

3 ASX 200 shares reaching record highs on Tuesday

First up is logistics-focused software developer WiseTech Global Ltd (ASX: WTC). The ASX 200 tech stock launched 1.9% to a high of $74.34 today – a new record.

Interestingly, there’s been no news from the company in the last couple of months. The last time the market saw a price-sensitive update from WiseTech was back in February.

That’s when it dropped its first-half earnings, detailing a 35% lift in revenue and a 40% underlying net profit after tax (NPAT). It also boosted its interim dividend by 39% to 6.6 cents per share.

Joining the stock in posting a new record high is its ASX 200 peer TechnologyOne Ltd (ASX: TNE). The TechnologyOne share price peaked at $15.86 earlier today – marking a 3.5% increase.

The latest news from the software-as-a-service (SaaS) provider came far more recently. Indeed, its first-half earnings were published this morning.

It posted a 22% jump in revenue, a 24% improvement in post-tax profit, and a 10% increase in its interim dividend, with 4.62 cents per share pledged to investors.

Finally, bringing in the biggest gain was stock in ASX 200 biopharmaceutical company Telix Pharmaceuticals Ltd (ASX: TLX). It surged 5% to an all-time high of $12.05 on Tuesday.

The company was added to the ASX 200 in February 2022. That same year it launched its lead product, Illuccix, in the United States.

More recently, it revealed positive results from a study of its TLX250-CDx product and announced its acquisition of AI-powered platform Dedicaid.
