Live Nasdaq Composite: Tech Slides as Markets Shrug Off Bullish AI Signals
"Nvidia is losing 3% despite soaring revenue coupled with management's strong outlook. The AI trade has reportedly pivoted from the capex boom to a focus on whether that spending pace can be sustained. Leading AI companies have suffered a $1 trillion loss in market cap this month at the worst of the sell-off but have recovered from their worst levels."
"Nvidia's better-than-expected earnings featured EPS of $1.62 per share vs. estimates of $1.50 on revenue of $68.1 billion, far surpassing estimates of $65.9 billion. Bank of America analysts reemphasized their "buy" rating on NVDA stock, lifting the price target by $25 to $300 per share, reflecting upside potential of approximately 60%."
"Morgan Stanley analysts are bullish on AI data cloud stock Snowflake (Nasdaq: SNOW) stock, reiterating an "overweight" rating on the stock. SNOW stock is a bright spot, soaring 7% today and bucking the broader downward trend. Snowflake offered a bullish outlook for its fiscal 2027 product revenue."
