The U.S. stock market exhibited positive movement on Thursday, buoyed by encouraging earnings from technology giant Nvidia. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose by 289 points, or 0.86%, while the S&P 500 increased by 1.45% and the Nasdaq Composite surged by 1.96%. Investor optimism was fueled by Nvidia’s report of a revenue jump of 101% year over year to $13.51 billion and a remarkable 427% increase in net income to $6.19 billion. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang stated, ‘We are witnessing the dawn of a new era in computing, marked by the transformative power of AI.’ Despite general market enthusiasm, concerns linger regarding inflation pressures and the Federal Reserve’s next moves. Meanwhile, tariffs imposed by the Trump administration have added to the volatility, with Trump confirming further tariffs on Chinese imports ahead of potential negotiations. Experts remain divided on the market’s trajectory as uncertainty looms over economic recovery, particularly concerning interest rates and inflation statistics. Wall Street closed higher in response to Nvidia’s strong performance, signaling a potential bullish trend, despite prior hesitations related to the economic outlook.
