· Business · Economic Times, LiveMint, Reuters
Wall Street opened higher on Thursday as technology stocks rallied in response to Nvidia's strong revenue forecast. The Nasdaq Composite rose 226.8 points to 26,356.977, while the S&P 500 gained 34.6 points to reach 7,710.34. The Dow Jones Industrial Average also saw an increase of 149.8 points, climbing to 53,613.66. The positive market sentiment was driven by robust buying in semiconductor and tech shares, which helped restore investor confidence in the broader artificial intelligence sector. Investors are also closely watching the Jackson Hole Symposium for further clarity on Federal Reserve policy and interest rate strategies.
Why it matters
The market rally underscores the continued influence of AI-related earnings on global investor sentiment, with Nvidia's performance acting as a key indicator for the health of the technology sector.
