The S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) has followed Wall Street's lead and is charging higher. It is currently up 0.4% to 7,165.4 points.

However, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq indices are at 52-week highs, the ASX 200 index is still a long way from that level.

Pleasingly, that hasn't stopped some ASX 200 stocks from achieving this milestone today.

In fact, a total of seven stocks on the index have printed new 52-week highs on Wednesday. Here are the high-flying shares:
