Nvidia jumped 2.2% on Wednesday, lifting AI names and sending the Nasdaq to a two-week high as the market eyed the chip giant’s quarterly numbers due after the bell. By 11:44 a.m. ET, the Nasdaq had gained 1.07%, the S&P 500 moved up 0.67%, and the Philadelphia semiconductor index notched a record. S&P tech climbed 1.7%. Options priced in a roughly 5.6% post-earnings swing. “The lack of new news helped to stabilize markets globally,” BNY’s Bob Savage said, with traders also watching for results from Salesforce and Snowflake later in the day.
