Stock market today: Nasdaq jumps to chip away at DeepSeek-fueled rout as Nvidia surges nearly 9%
Published On Jan 28, 2025, 4:08 PM
On January 28, 2025, the Nasdaq and S&P 500 rebounded following a significant sell-off caused by concerns over a new, cheaper AI model from Chinese startup DeepSeek. Nvidia saw a sharp recovery, climbing nearly 9%, after losing $589 billion in market capitalization the day before due to fears surrounding AI competition. The broader tech sector also performed well, aided by upcoming major earnings reports from leading companies such as Apple, Tesla, and Microsoft, amidst mixed signals regarding tariff policies from the US government. As the economy shows solid signs, expectations are that the Federal Reserve will leave interest rates unchanged.
