Major stock indexes fell on Wednesday after disappointing GDP data was released before the market opened. Meanwhile, Cathie Wood, a renowned investor, continued to sell shares of Nvidia on the open market.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 0.4% in early trading, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq also posting losses. Exchange-traded funds such as the Nasdaq 100 tracker and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF saw declines as well. Treasury yields decreased slightly, while oil prices remained near recent highs.
Cathie Wood’s Ark Genomic Revolution ETF sold a significant amount of Nvidia shares recently. Earnings reports from companies such as Advance Auto Parts, Baidu, eBay, and TJX also impacted the market’s performance.
The Commerce Department reported that fourth-quarter GDP was lower than expected, with personal consumption expenditures on the rise. Despite the ongoing stock market rally, currently available stocks with strong potential are scarce. Investors should stay informed about changing market conditions and adjust their strategies accordingly.
Disney, Procter & Gamble, and other top stocks are worth watching, as they show potential to perform well in the current market. Breakout and near-pivot stocks also offer opportunities for investors seeking growth. Nvidia and Tesla were among the leading stocks analyzed, with notable changes in their performance. Apple and Microsoft, from the Dow Jones list, showed declines in trading after the market opened.
