The Nasdaq Composite dropped over **1%**, weighed down by continued selling in NVIDIA, while the S&P 500 edged slightly lower and the Dow Jones Industrials drifted in a narrow range. Market attention remained squarely on the fallout from NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang's resignation. Across the tape, the semiconductor space saw dramatic bifurcation: NVIDIA extended its slide, falling more than **4%**, while AMD and Broadcom each surged over **5%**. AI cloud computing names broadly declined, with Nebius plunging over **16%** and CoreWeave dropping nearly **7%**. On the upside, Google parent Alphabet rallied nearly **3%**, and Apple hovered near its all-time high. **Semiconductors Split Sharply — NVIDIA Down 4%+, AMD and Broadcom Up 5%+** As of the latest check, NVIDIA (NVDA) fell **4.62%** to **$165.70** on volume of **578 million shares**, ranking as the second most active stock on the tape. AMD (AMD) jumped **5.34%** to **$582.42**, while Broadcom (AVGO) climbed **5.52%** to **$364.28**. Super Micro Computer (SMCI) tumbled **11.76%** to **$26.85**, and Intel (INTC) slipped **0.72%**. On the news front, NVIDIA founder Jensen Huang stepped down as CEO and board chairman amid a personal scandal, with CFO Colette Kress serving as interim CEO. Bernstein downgraded NVIDIA on heightened volatility, with the stock now down more than **30%** from its peak and its RSI dropping to **23.95**, well into technically oversold territory. Meanwhile, William Blair upgraded AMD to **Outperform**, arguing that NVIDIA's leadership turmoil opens a strategic window for AMD and forecasting revenue growth exceeding **80%** by 2027. AMD also announced plans to take a stake in quantum computing firm PsiQuantum, combining GPU and silicon photonics technology to advance quantum computing. **AI Cloud Sector Slides — Nebius Tumbles Over 16%** At midday, Nebius (NBIS) plunged **16.58%** to **$129.05**, CoreWeave (CRWV) dropped **6.94%** to **$56.55**, and IREN fell **6.67%**. Though Nebius reported better-than-expected earnings, the market zeroed in on concerns including one-time revenue items propping up results and delays in compute capacity delivery. The company narrowed its 2026 revenue guidance to **$3.0–$3.2 billion** due to deployment delays at its New Jersey and other colocation sites, even as it issued a 2027 revenue target of roughly **$12–$13 billion**. Anxiety over AI funding pipelines triggered by Huang's resignation rippled across the entire Neocloud sector, with the Roundhill Neocloud ETF down roughly **14%** over the same period. **Alphabet Gains Nearly 3%; Apple Trades Near Highs** Alphabet (GOOGL) rose **2.79%** to **$301.63**. The parent company raised nearly **$4 billion** equivalent in the Asian bond market through its debut Hong Kong dollar and Singapore dollar bond issuances, with proceeds earmarked entirely for AI infrastructure investment and general corporate purposes. Both tranches were oversubscribed. Apple shares recently touched an all-time high of **$359.30**; Bernstein attributed its **37x** P/E multiple to an AI safe-haven premium, citing Apple's low capex burden, strong free cash flow, and consistent shareholder returns via buybacks — a stark contrast to peers reliant on expensive AI infrastructure. Elsewhere, SpaceX (SPCX) gained **2.13%** on speculation that Huang might join the company and news that State Street boosted its stake by **77.8%**. Corteva (CTVA) cratered **18.70%** to **$9.87**. Among Chinese ADRs, NIO fell **5.71%** to **$3.06**. Crypto-linked MARA slid **1.76%** as bitcoin slipped below the **$72,000** mark. ### Related Stocks - [NVDA.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDA.US.md) - [AMD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AMD.US.md) - [AVGO.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AVGO.US.md) - [SMCI.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SMCI.US.md) - [NBIS.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NBIS.US.md) - [CRWV.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CRWV.US.md) - [GOOGL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOGL.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [AMD Stock Upgraded as AI Chip Rival Nvidia Spirals](https://longbridge.com/en/news/305353939.md) - [Google releases Gemini 4 Carbon with agent ‘swarm’ feature](https://longbridge.com/en/news/305042685.md) - [Voters Rejected Data Centers In 10 States, Raising Regulatory Risk for CoreWeave, Nvidia and AI Build-Out](https://longbridge.com/en/news/305277843.md) - [AMD Lands Key Role in Google's New AI Chip System as Nvidia Rivalry Intensifies](https://longbridge.com/en/news/304902478.md) - [Alphabet Appoints Joint Global Coordinators For Potential Inaugural Dual Currency Bond Offering, Term Sheet Shows](https://longbridge.com/en/news/305096718.md) --- > **Disclaimer: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.**
