Explosive Growth: Nvidia (NVDA) Soars 26% on Impressive Earnings Report
Futures on major indices fell as Fitch placed the AAA rating of the United States on the negative watchlist. The 30-stock index dropped 255.59 points, or 0.77%. The S&P 500 ended the day with a decline of 0.73%, while the Nasdaq Composite fell by 0.61%.
Debt ceiling negotiations continued to exert pressure on the key benchmarks. Talks hit a roadblock earlier on Wednesday, but later House Speaker Kevin McCarthy reported that negotiations were progressing successfully. Our robots actively opened short positions yesterday, thereby safeguarding portfolios against potential downturns. In my opinion, the decision on the debt ceiling will continue to weigh on the markets.
In turn, Nvidia reported its first-quarter earnings for fiscal year 2024 on Wednesday, delivering a forecast that exceeded expectations and resulted in a 26% surge in share prices during after-hours trading. Our robots have been exiting positions ahead of the earnings report to mitigate risks, so this development did not have any impact on our profitability.
