Most of Wall Street climbs on encouraging inflation report, but Big Tech slumps

Most U.S. stocks rose after the latest update on inflation bolstered Wall Street's belief that relief on interest rates may come as soon as September. Nearly 80% of the stocks in the S&P 500 climbed Thursday, and homebuilders, real estate owners and other stocks that benefit the most from easier interest rates led the way. But slumps for Nvidia, Tesla and other influential stocks in the small group that's come to be known as the Magnificent Seven masked the underlying strength. That dragged the S&P 500 down 0.9%. The Nasdaq fell 2% and the Dow rose 32 points. Bond yields tumbled.

Nvidia tumbles again as AI mania cools

Another slide for Wall Street heavyweight Nvidia kept U.S. indexes mixed, even as the majority of stocks rallied. The S&P 500 slipped 0.3% Monday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.7%, and the Nasdaq composite fell 1.1%. Stocks of oil-and-gas and financial companies had some of the market's biggest gains, as seven out of every 10 stocks in the S&P 500 rose. But declines for a handful of winners from Wall Street's frenzy around AI offset all of those gains. Nvidia fell to a third straight loss and is down nearly 13% in that stretch. Treasury yields eased slightly in the bond market.

Wall Street's smallest stocks roar back

Wall Street's split widened, as smaller stocks and other formerly unloved areas of the market rose up while superstar Big Tech stocks gave back more of their huge gains. Most stocks climbed Thursday after a surprisingly strong report on the U.S. economy raised hopes for profits at smaller companies. Continued weakness for a pocket of Big Tech stocks including Nvidia and Microsoft weighed on the S&P 500, however, and the index fell 0.5% after a healthy gain from earlier in the day evaporated. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.2%, and the Nasdaq composite lost 0.9%.

Aerocet continues its ascent

PRIEST RIVER — What does community involvement look like? It looks like support for local events and fundraisers. It looks like giving time, money and providing resources to every aspect of our rural life from lawn mower races to advocating for a women’s shelter.

S&P 500 rallies as tech rebounds

The S&P 500 jumped 1.6% Wednesday for its best day in five months. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.2%, and the Nasdaq composite soared 2.6%. The widespread gains came as Treasury yields eased in the bond market after the Federal Reserve gave the clearest indication yet that it could begin lowering interest rates in September.
