Nasdaq, S&P futures flat after Nvidia's results
Published On Aug 29, 2024, 5:26 AM
The Dow Jones Industrial Average reached a record high, fueled by strong U.S. economic data indicating robust consumer spending, which reduces recession fears. In contrast, Nvidia's stock fell over 6% due to a disappointing revenue forecast, which did not meet investors' heightened expectations. Other tech stocks showed mixed results with Apple rising 1.5% after being selected as a top pick for AI investments, and CrowdStrike gaining 2.8% after exceeding revenue estimates. Overall, the markets displayed cautious signs with expectations for potential interest rate cuts.
