Dow, S&P 500 snap losing streak as chip and AI stocks kick off 2026 with a rally

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 17:26 ET The Dow and S&P 500 ended higher on Friday to start 2026, snapping four-session losing streaks as semiconductor shares rallied, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq finished fractionally lower. Investopedia The early tone matters because U.S. equities enter the new year after a three-year run of strong gains, with investors looking for signs that demand for AI-linked trades can broaden beyond a narrow group of winners. It also comes as traders brace for a busier data calendar and new policy risks, after a muted holiday stretch that left markets prone to sharp moves on thin

Big Tech stocks end first session of 2026 mixed as Tesla slides on deliveries, chips rebound

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 12:42 ET — Market closed Big Tech stocks started 2026 on a split note on Friday, with Tesla’s drop after its delivery report offsetting strength in chipmakers led by Nvidia. Reuters The mixed tape matters now because megacap tech has an outsized pull on the Nasdaq and S&P 500, and investors are using the year’s opening sessions to reset exposure after a volatile end to 2025. Reuters It also comes with rates in focus. Treasury yields rose on the day, a headwind for high-valuation growth stocks because higher yields can make future profits worth less

CoreWeave stock jumps on credit covenant tweak — what CRWV investors are watching next

NEW YORK, January 3, 2026, 10:42 ET — Market closed CoreWeave, Inc. shares climbed in the last session after the Nvidia-backed AI cloud provider disclosed changes to a major credit agreement that lowered near-term liquidity requirements and pushed back some covenant tests, a filing showed.

Nvidia stock today: NVDA closes higher as chip rally kicks off 2026 — what investors watch next week

New York, Jan 3, 2026, 09:20 ET — Market closed Nvidia shares ended Friday up 1.2% at $188.85, outperforming the broader market as semiconductors led a rebound in the first trading session of 2026. Reuters That move matters because Nvidia has become a bellwether for “AI plays” — stocks tied to artificial intelligence spending — after a choppy year-end left investors wary of stretched valuations. Chipmakers lifted the Philadelphia SE Semiconductor index, a benchmark for major U.S. chip stocks, which rose 4% on Friday.

Nvidia stock rises to start 2026 — and traders are already eyeing Jensen Huang’s CES stage

NEW YORK, January 3, 2026, 06:08 ET — Market closed NVIDIA Corporation shares rose 1.26% to $188.85 at Friday’s close and were little changed in after-hours trading. ( Stockanalysis) The gain mattered because Nvidia remains a key proxy for the “AI trade” — investor demand for stocks tied to artificial intelligence hardware and spending — and early-year positioning can set the tone for the sector. Attention is also turning quickly to near-term catalysts, including a scheduled CES appearance by Nvidia Chief Executive Jensen Huang and a new insider sale notice, after a late-December wobble put valuation back in focus for

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 05:59 ET — Market closed The U.S. struck Venezuela overnight and captured President Nicolas Maduro, President Donald Trump said early on Saturday, promising more details at an 11 a.m. ET press conference in Florida. Venezuela’s government said attacks hit Caracas and several states and declared a national emergency. Reuters said the action would be the most direct U.S. intervention in Latin America since the 1989 invasion of Panama.  Reuters The surprise escalation hits as U.S. markets are shut for the weekend, leaving traders to digest the geopolitical shock before Monday’s opening bell.

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 4:30 PM ET — After-hours Wall Street ended mixed on Friday, with the Dow snapping a four-day losing streak to start 2026 as chipmakers and industrials rallied, while consumer discretionary shares weighed.

Nvidia stock rises as chipmakers rally into 2026; NVDA traders eye CES and earnings

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 16:06 ET — After-hours NVIDIA Corp shares rose $2.00, or about 1.1%, to $188.50 in late trade on Friday, extending a semiconductor-led lift in the first trading session of 2026. The move mattered because chipmakers helped offset broader market churn, with the Philadelphia SE Semiconductor index up about 3.5% in afternoon trading. Reuters For investors, Nvidia’s direction is a quick read on whether the “AI infrastructure” trade is regaining traction after a choppy year-end. That trade centers on spending for servers, networking and power gear that run artificial intelligence workloads. Reuters Peers also advanced. AMD

Stock market today: Dow steadies as chip stocks jump, Tesla drops in Wall Street’s 2026 opener

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 13:33 ET — Regular session Wall Street’s main indexes were mixed in early afternoon on Friday as the first trading day of 2026 opened without a clear risk-on push, despite a sharp rebound in chip shares. Reuters The muted start matters because stocks enter the new year near record highs after a strong 2025, leaving little room for disappointment on growth, earnings and interest rates. Investors are looking for an early read on whether last year’s leadership can extend into January. Reuters A crowded January calendar could set the tone quickly, with fresh labor-market and

Stock market today: S&P 500, Nasdaq start 2026 higher as tech rebounds; Intuit sinks on co-founder sale

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 11:33 ET U.S. stocks rose on Friday, the first trading day of 2026, as investors returned to heavyweight technology names. Intuit fell after a regulatory filing showed co-founder and director Scott Cook sold shares. The opening moves matter because money managers often reset portfolios at the start of the year, amplifying early swings. Investors are also testing whether the 2025 rally — powered in part by enthusiasm around artificial intelligence — can carry into January. Wall Street is coming off a late-December pullback that undercut expectations for a “Santa Claus rally,” a seasonal pattern of
