Today’s Stock Market: Sell-Off Led by Nvidia Comes to an End as Federal Reserve Indicates Hawkish Stance

US indexes rose as Nvidia rebounded from a three-day decline, offering an opportunity for long investors to buy in. Fed Governor Michelle Bowman mentioned the possibility of an interest rate hike. Investors are keeping an eye on commentary from Federal Reserve officials and the upcoming personal consumption expenditures data.

Nvidia, a leading semiconductor firm, lost $430 billion over three days after briefly becoming the world’s largest company last week. The stock fell into correction territory during this sell-off. Analysts believe the drop from record highs was largely due to profit-taking by investors, with little fundamental news to push the stock lower. Some view this as a buy-the-dip moment before Nvidia’s next earnings report.

Governor Bowman warned of risks of an inflation rebound, indicating that interest rate cuts are not guaranteed this year. The 10-year Treasury yield inched up to 4.25%. In other financial markets, West Texas Intermediate and Brent crude oil prices slipped, while gold decreased. Bitcoin remained stable at $61,105 at the start of the trading day.
