Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500 surge as stocks mount a comeback from deep losses

Published On Sep 9, 2024, 9:32 AM

US stocks saw a rebound after a tough previous week, primarily driven by major gains in the S&P 500, Dow Jones, and Nasdaq. Key sectors such as Financials, Industrials, and Energy led the recovery, with significant boosts from major companies like Nvidia, Tesla, and Amazon. The market is currently focused on upcoming consumer and producer inflation reports which may guide the Federal Reserve's decisions regarding interest rates. Investors are also closely watching Apple's latest iPhone launch and product updates during its annual event, although Apple's stock showed little movement on the day.

Stock Forecasts

The rebound in US stocks suggests a positive outlook for overall market sentiment. Continued focus on inflation data could stabilize markets further ahead of the Fed's policy decisions. Sectors showing strength today, particularly tech with firms like Nvidia, could maintain momentum depending on economic data released this week.

Nvidia's strong performance after a drop in the previous week indicates renewed investor confidence in tech stocks, particularly in AI-related industries. As the market responds positively to earnings forecasts and developments in chip technology, Nvidia may continue to see favorable trading conditions.

Investor sentiment around Tesla remains high after recent losses. However, with consumer preferences shifting away from EVs as indicated in market surveys, Tesla's stock could face challenges. If sales expectations don’t meet projections, the stock may experience volatility in the near term.

With Apple launching new products that typically drive higher sales, this event could bolster investor confidence in AAPL. Despite minimal price movement today, successful uptake of the iPhone 16 and other products could lead to positive momentum for the stock moving forward.
