The Dow Jones Industrial Average pushed above 50,000 points for the first time on Friday, a milestone for the blue-chip index as stocks snapped back from a week of AI-driven jitters. Nvidia and Caterpillar helped lead the move. The rally landed after three straight sessions of selling that hit big technology names and spilled into crypto. Investors have been weighing whether the artificial intelligence boom is turning into a capital-spending race that pressures profits, at least in the near term.

New York, Feb 6, 2026, 15:05 — Regular session Amazon.com shares slid $15.56, or close to 7%, to $207.13 in Friday afternoon trading, after the company laid out a plan for about $200 billion in capital expenditures in 2026.
