Nasdaq is leading Wall Street down as anticipation builds for Nvidia’s results – News

Wall Street’s main indexes were lower on Wednesday as investors awaited Nvidia’s earnings, with the Nasdaq leading declines. The recent bull market rally, led by the AI chip firm and other tech-related shares, was under scrutiny to see if it could be sustained. The Dow was drifting near a record high, and the S&P 500 was within 1% of an all-time peak. Nvidia’s shares were down 2.5%, and options pricing showed traders anticipated a 9.8% move in Nvidia’s shares. Disappointing results from Nvidia could potentially impact megacaps and other semiconductor stocks that have driven the 2024 rally.

Investors were nervous about Nvidia’s results as expectations were high. Some were curious about how much better it could get. Any news about Nvidia would not only affect the company’s shares but also impact the technology sector and the overall market. Other chip stocks like Broadcom and Advanced Micro Devices fell, with the Philadelphia SE Semiconductor index down as well. Growth stocks like Meta, Microsoft, and Alphabet were also in the red. By midday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the S&P 500, and the Nasdaq Composite were all down.

Six of the 11 S&P 500 sectors were lower, with technology stocks experiencing a 1.5% drop. However, bank stocks rose by more than 1%, with Wells Fargo and Bank of America showing gains. Optimism prevailed about a potential interest rate cut by the U.S. Federal Reserve following Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s comments supporting imminent policy adjustments. Odds of a rate reduction stood at 63.5% for a 25-basis point cut and 36.5% for a 50-bps cut. The upcoming Personal Consumption Expenditure report for July was expected to provide more clarity on the central bank’s rate-cut trajectory.

Super Micro Computer tumbled after announcing a delay in filing its annual report, leading to concerns following a short position disclosed by Hindenburg Research. Meanwhile, Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway reached a market value exceeding $1 trillion. Declining issues outnumbered advancers on the NYSE and Nasdaq. The S&P index recorded new highs, while the Nasdaq saw both new highs and new lows.

In conclusion, the market was focused on Nvidia’s earnings while analyzing the sustainability of the recent bull market rally driven by tech-related shares. Investors were cautious about potential disappointments from Nvidia’s results and how they could impact the overall market. The anticipation of an interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve added to market sentiment, with bank stocks seeing gains. The upcoming data releases and company announcements would provide further insights into market trends and potential adjustments. Ultimately, market participants remained vigilant for any developments that could impact the ongoing market dynamics.
