Nasdaq Rebounds on AI Optimism But Posts Fourth Weekly Decline
· Business · Economic Times, Investing.com
The Nasdaq Composite Index saw a significant rebound on Friday, driven by strong gains in technology stocks, particularly in the semiconductor sector. Nvidia rose 2.8% and Advanced Micro Devices added 11%, boosting investor confidence in artificial intelligence growth. Despite this daily recovery, the Nasdaq recorded its fourth consecutive weekly decline, falling 3.4% for the week. The S&P 500 also dropped 2.7% weekly, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 0.9%. Truist Advisory Services' chief investment officer, Keith Lerner, views the recent selloff as a potential longer-term buying opportunity for investors.
