  • Tech stocks are leading the Nasdaq higher at midday, and the S&P 500 is headed

    Tech stocks are leading the Nasdaq higher at midday, and the S&P 500 is headed north as well. That said, the Dow Jones Industrial Average is off by about 250 points and the Russell 2000 is also lower, leading to a bifurcated stock market so far today. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note is down slightly to about 4.43%, gold and Bitcoin are off about 1%, and crude oil prices are rising. On the earnings front, Nvidia (NVDA, up 10%) remains the story of the day after its quarterly profit report once again rocketed past Street expectations. The good news from the AI industry leader is lifting other tech stock as well (DELL, up 7%; SMCI, up 4%).
