Stock market today: Nasdaq logs best week of 2025 as Dow, S&P 500 notch third-straight weekly gain
Published On Feb 14, 2025, 4:16 PM
US stocks ended mixed on Friday, with the Nasdaq 100 achieving a record high. The S&P 500 declined slightly, while the Nasdaq Composite rose by 0.4%. The week was marked by important data releases, including a disappointing retail sales report indicating the biggest drop in a year, which fell 0.9% in January against expectations of a 0.2% decline. The markets have been reacting to ongoing tariff updates from President Trump and inflation concerns. Notably, stocks of Airbnb surged after it reported strong quarterly results and announced plans to transform its app into a one-stop shop for travel and living needs. In contrast, Moderna's shares fell after it posted larger-than-expected earnings losses. Other stocks like Nvidia, Intel, and Meta saw gains during the week, led by significant positive developments and speculative trends.

Positive
Nvidia's performance linked to changes in equity holdings and the ongoing advances in AI chip production could lead to sustained gains as market interest in technology solidifies.
INTC
Positive
Intel experienced significant gains on positive commentary about AI chips and domestic production, indicating potential for continued positive momentum in the stock.
GME
Neutral
GameStop's movement towards cryptocurrency investment may excite the market, but substantial uncertainty remains due to its speculative nature, leading towards a cautious outlook but with potential for optimism.
