  • AI Concerns and Rising Oil Prices Shake U.S. Stocks
    April 28, 2026, 1:15 PM EDT. U.S. stock indexes struggled as fears over artificial intelligence (AI) investments dented tech shares, with Nvidia, Oracle, and AMD falling after OpenAI missed targets. The S&P 500 slid 0.66%, Nasdaq 100 dropped 1.30%, while the Dow edged up 0.03% aided by a 6% gain in Coca-Cola following strong revenue. Positive U.S. data-including a consumer confidence rise to a 4-month high and robust manufacturing survey-offered some support. However, soaring crude prices hit investor sentiment amid geopolitical tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. West Texas Intermediate oil surged over 3% amid supply risks from the partial blockade. The 10-year Treasury yield climbed to a three-week peak ahead of the Federal Reserve meeting. Market focus remains on inflation pressures and energy disruptions that could weigh on broader market gains.
