US Stock Market Today: Nasdaq Slides as AI Selloff Hits Nvidia, Fed and Oil Risks Loom

US Stock Market Today: Nasdaq Slides as AI Selloff Hits Nvidia, Fed and Oil Risks Loom

Nasdaq Composite slumped Tuesday morning, pulling major U.S. equity benchmarks into the red after renewed worries about artificial intelligence demand rattled chipmakers and names tied to the cloud. By 11:49 a.m. ET, Nasdaq had dropped 1.44%. The S&P 500 was off 0.78%, while the Dow managed a slim 0.12% gain, according to Reuters. The shift grabbed attention, given how much the latest Wall Street rally has ridden the AI wave. A Wall Street Journal piece said OpenAI fell short of some internal milestones for weekly users and revenue, sparking fresh doubt among investors about whether the billions sunk into high-powered chips and sprawling data centers will deliver profits on schedule.
US Stock Market Today: S&P 500, Nasdaq Hit Records as After-Hours Trading Edges Higher

US Stock Market Today: S&P 500, Nasdaq Hit Records as After-Hours Trading Edges Higher

After the S&P 500 and Nasdaq set new records at the close, U.S. stock-index futures ticked up in after-hours action Monday. Gains were modest: the S&P 500 up 0.14%, Nasdaq 100 adding 0.15%, Dow inching ahead 0.09%, and Russell 2000 climbing 0.18%, according to StockAnalysis data. This shift comes with investors bracing for a jam-packed earnings week. Reports are on deck from Amazon, Alphabet, Meta Platforms, Apple, and Microsoft. Reuters notes that firms set to post results represent roughly 44% of the S&P 500’s total market value.

Dow Jones Industrial Average Is Lagging — Fed, PCE and Big Tech Could Decide Its Next Move

Dow futures slipped early Monday, pressured by climbing oil prices and a busy week ahead: megacap earnings, the Fed meeting, plus two key U.S. economic reports all loom. These futures track the index’s moves before the trading bell. This comes as the Dow lagged last week, dropping 216.72 points, or 0.4%. In contrast, the S&P 500 climbed 0.5% and the Nasdaq Composite advanced 1.5%, boosted by technology stocks picking up steam.
US Stock Market Week Ahead: Record S&P 500 Rally Faces Iran Risk, Tesla Earnings and Fed Hearing

US Stock Market Week Ahead: Record S&P 500 Rally Faces Iran Risk, Tesla Earnings and Fed Hearing

Wall Street starts the week with a new geopolitical headache. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq closed out Friday setting records, but by Sunday, the Strait of Hormuz remained closed—Iran changed course and kept the crucial passage shut. New talks between the U.S. and Iran are set for Monday in Pakistan. It’s a tricky stretch for investors. Close to 20% of S&P 500 firms are on deck with results this week—Tesla and Boeing land Wednesday, Intel drops Thursday, and Procter & Gamble wraps things up on Friday. Next week brings Microsoft, Alphabet, and Meta.
Dow Jumps 1,100 Points on Iran Exit Hopes, but Wall Street Still Closes Its Worst Quarter Since 2022

Dow Jumps 1,100 Points on Iran Exit Hopes, but Wall Street Still Closes Its Worst Quarter Since 2022

NEW YORK, April 1, 2026, 07:09 EDT. U.S. stock futures edged higher early Wednesday, coming off Wall Street’s strongest single-day rally in almost a year. Investors latched onto President Donald Trump’s comment that the U.S. might be able to wind down the Iran war in two to three weeks. Dow and S&P 500 futures climbed about 0.5%, while Nasdaq 100 futures were up around 0.7%, according to Reuters.
Alphabet Stock Price Target Raised to $397 as Wells Fargo Sees Google Cloud Lift From Wiz and TPUs

Alphabet Stock Price Target Raised to $397 as Wells Fargo Sees Google Cloud Lift From Wiz and TPUs

Wells Fargo bumped its price target on Alphabet up to $397 from $387, sticking with its Overweight call. Shares, though, lingered around five-month lows: Alphabet last traded at $274.38 late Monday morning, barely moving after Friday’s close marked the stock’s lowest point since October 2025, Barron’s reported. Alphabet’s call takes on urgency as it pushes investors to swallow a hefty new spending round. Back in February, the company projected 2026 capital expenditures between $175 billion and $185 billion—a jump that’s left Wall Street pressing for answers on the pace of AI payoffs.
Alphabet Stock News: Nordea Rejigs Google Stake as BDF Gestion, Tompkins Trim Holdings

Alphabet Stock News: Nordea Rejigs Google Stake as BDF Gestion, Tompkins Trim Holdings

Institutional action in Alphabet turned out to be a mixed bag in the fourth-quarter filings: Nordea Investment Management picked up more of one share class, but both BDF Gestion and Tompkins Financial pulled back, paring their stakes. Then this week, Nordea’s latest disclosure revealed a reduction in Alphabet’s alternate listed share class, which complicates any straightforward take on how investors are feeling. The story here is plain. Alphabet's stock isn’t just riding the AI wave anymore: a jury in Los Angeles just held Google and Meta responsible in a youth social-media harm trial, while the Nasdaq has dropped into correction territory as traders rethink risk exposure in big tech.
US Stock Market Today: Futures Rise After Nasdaq Correction as Oil Keeps Wall Street on Edge

US Stock Market Today: Futures Rise After Nasdaq Correction as Oil Keeps Wall Street on Edge

U.S. stock futures ticked up early Friday, with President Donald Trump’s decision to give a 10-day extension on his deadline for Iranian power plant strikes providing Wall Street with a modest premarket lift. Thursday’s rout had already shoved the Nasdaq into correction territory. Brent crude slipped roughly 0.7% to near $107 a barrel, still elevated enough for traders to remain cautious. Why is this front and center? Crude swings and war news are calling the shots—domestic data isn’t. Reuters flagged that traders have assigned about a 50% probability to a Fed rate hike in September, but now the Bureau of Economic Analysis has delayed the February personal income and outlays report, which includes the PCE price index, to April 9 instead of March 27. So, Friday’s market mood will hinge on oil, fresh comments from Fed’s Thomas Barkin, Anna Paulson, Mary Daly, and any updates out of the Strait of Hormuz.
Marvell Technology Stock Rises as Bigger AI Revenue Bet Draws Wall Street Backing

Marvell Technology Stock Rises as Bigger AI Revenue Bet Draws Wall Street Backing

Shares of Marvell Technology ticked about 0.5% higher Tuesday morning, changing hands at $93.11. Buyers kept showing up for the chipmaker, putting faith in its positive AI data-center demand outlook. Why does it matter? Marvell stands out as a test case for whether spending is finally shifting toward ASICs—their specialty chips built for a single job—and the networking gear gluing together AI servers, instead of just Nvidia’s GPUs. The company highlights that Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft and Amazon are on track to invest north of $630 billion in AI infrastructure this year. Broadcom struck a similar upbeat tone last week. Marvell President and COO Chris Koopmans said demand for its interconnect hardware is “still growing massively.”
Alphabet Inc (Google) Class C Faces Indonesia Under-16 Rule as YouTube Enters Talks

Alphabet Inc (Google) Class C Faces Indonesia Under-16 Rule as YouTube Enters Talks

YouTube, owned by Alphabet, is negotiating with Indonesian authorities as the country moves to block under-16 users from "high risk" social-media platforms starting March 28. TikTok is also engaged in discussions, company officials confirmed Monday. The timing is key here. YouTube is no small project for Alphabet—it's central. CEO Sundar Pichai told investors just last month that the video giant pulled in "over $60 billion" in annual revenue from ads and subscriptions in 2025. A rule limiting younger users on this platform hits Alphabet’s core business directly.

Microsoft Stock Price Week Ahead: Can MSFT Hold Near $409 as AI Demand Faces a CPI Test?

New York, March 7, 2026, 14:09 EST — Market closed Microsoft shares settled at $408.96 on Friday, ticking down 0.4% after edging lower in the last session. The stock remains close to $409 as the company moves into next week, with investors parsing renewed signals of AI demand while the broader macro picture turned gloomier toward week’s end.
Alphabet GOOG slips as Google cuts Play Store fees after Epic deal and brings Fortnite back

Alphabet GOOG slips as Google cuts Play Store fees after Epic deal and brings Fortnite back

Alphabet Inc’s Class C shares slipped roughly 1.3% to $299.62 early Thursday, following Google’s announcement to reduce Play Store fees and relax some restrictions on Android app payments. “This gives app stores more ways to reach users and gives users more ways to access the apps and games they love,” said Sameer Samat, president of Android Ecosystem. This move strikes at the core of the app store “tollbooth” approach—operators claim a slice of revenue from in-app purchases, whether for digital items or subscriptions. Google isn’t holding out for a final court decision; instead, it’s rolling out the changes through 2027. That step could upend what competitors and regulators expect.

Why Alphabet’s Google Class C stock (GOOG) is in focus today: Trump’s power pledge and a new Waymo probe

WASHINGTON, March 4, 2026, 11:10 AM EST Google, a unit of Alphabet Inc, heads to the White House on Wednesday for the rollout of a “Ratepayer Protection Pledge”—an effort aimed at addressing the electricity burden from AI data centers. Lawmakers are grappling with the question: who ultimately foots the bill for soaring power needs? “The real problem is the inability to get generation online fast enough to meet the data center demand,” said Jon Gordon, director at the clean-energy group Advanced Energy United.

Shares were last down about 0.5% at $309.90 in after-hours trading, the extended session after U.S. markets close.
