The US markets ended mixed on Wednesday. After seeing weakness throughout much of the session, stocks recovered in the latter part of the trading day on Wednesday. The major averages climbed well off their worst levels before eventually ending the session mixed. The roughly flat close by the major averages came as traders looked ahead to the release of quarterly results from AI darling Nvidia (NVDA) after the close of today’s trading. Nvidia, which has recently been a major market leader, fluctuated over the course of the session before closing down 0.8 percent. The volatility seen late in the session also came as trading activity was somewhat subdued amid a lack of major U.S. economic data.
On the sectoral front, biotechnology stocks showed a strong move to the upside on the day, driving the NYSE Arca Biotechnology Index up by 1.8 percent. The index continued to regain ground after hitting a three-month closing low on Monday. Healthcare and pharmaceutical stocks also turned in strong performances. Notable weakness remained visible among computer hardware stocks, with the NYSE Arca Computer Hardware Index falling by 1.3 percent after surging over the two previous sessions. A sharp pullback by shares of Super Micro Computer (SMCI) weighed on the sector.
Dow Jones Industrial Average surged 139.53 points or 0.32 percent to 43,408.47 and S&P 500 was up by 0.13 points to 5,917.11, while Nasdaq fell 21.33 points or 0.11 percent to 18,966.14.
