  • Stocks Climb as Oil Prices and Treasury Yields Drop Ahead of Nvidia Earnings
    May 20, 2026, 6:04 PM EDT. U.S. stocks surged with the Dow Jones up 1.31%, S&P 500 gaining 1.08%, and Nasdaq rising 1.54% on May 20, 2026. This followed a sharp decline in oil prices, with WTI crude down 5.66% at $98.26 per barrel, and Brent crude falling 5.63%. Lower oil prices came after reports of progress in Middle East peace talks. Treasury yields eased, with the 10-year yield dropping over 9 basis points, alleviating recent inflation concerns. Market focus shifts to Nvidia's Q1 earnings report, seen as a critical indicator for the AI sector and chip demand. Nvidia shares rose over 1% ahead of results, trading near a 20% gain for the year. Analysts caution that while expectations are muted, the report could influence the broader market sentiment significantly.
