Despite its earnings report exceeding expectations, the guidance did not meet some high market expectations, raising concerns about the return cycle of AI capital expenditures. Micron Technology (MU.US) and Broadcom (AVGO.US) fell by 0.77% and 0.67%, respectively, as market sentiment towards the hardware supply chain turned cautious in the short term. ▪ The automotive manufacturing sector experienced a broad decline due to dual pressures from governance issues and macroeconomic risks. Tesla (TSLA.US) fell 1.49%, primarily affected by stalled legal reforms in Delaware. General Motors (GM.US) and Ford Motor Company (F.US) declined by 2.57% and 2.22%, respectively, as investors worried about geopolitical risks and macro data pressures on traditional automakers. ▪ The system software sector weakened, with Microsoft (MSFT.US) down 2.24%, as the market assessed the impact of OpenAI's additional financing and pressure from U.S. Treasury yields. Oracle (ORCL.US) fell 3.27%, and Nebius (NBIS.US) plummeted 13.05%, as investors worried about intensified capital competition in AI infrastructure, leading to a repricing of cloud service providers' valuations. **Macroeconomic Background** ▪ As of February 27, 2026, market focus is on the macro picture of a cooling labor market coexisting with high productivity. Non-farm employment growth is weak, and the unemployment rate is at a relatively high level of 4.4%, indicating a slowdown in economic momentum. ▪ On the other hand, the preliminary value of non-farm productivity recorded a strong growth of 4.9%, accompanied by a decline in unit labor costs, suggesting that inflationary pressures may ease. Investors are weighing the dual signals of economic slowdown and controlled inflation, focusing on the Federal Reserve's policy easing pace against the backdrop of weakening employment. **Popular Stocks** ▪ Applied Optoelectronics (AAOI.US) rose 56.88%, with a trading volume of $1.866 billion. The market speculates that it benefits from demand for AI data center fiber optic products, combined with optimistic sentiment ahead of its earnings report, leading to a significant breakout above key resistance levels. ▪ Ensysce Biosciences (ENSC.US) rose 57.77%, with a trading volume of $179 million. This was mainly driven by rumors of strategic review and potential capital restructuring, along with news of insider buying, triggering speculative buying in the market ▪ KORE (KORE.US) rose 78.64%, with a trading volume of $26.7204 million. As a small-cap stock, it experienced significant volatility without a clear announcement, possibly influenced by insufficient liquidity, leading to a short covering rally. ▪ PureCycle Tech - CW26 (PCTTW.US) rose 168.42%, with a trading volume of $349,800. The underlying stock PCT announced a record high quarterly production, and improved operational efficiency boosted confidence, with the warrants experiencing significant gains driven by leverage effects. ▪ OneMedNet (ONMD.US) rose 44.60%, with a trading volume of $255 million. It rebounded sharply without major announcements, possibly driven by mergers in the same industry or inflows into the medical AI sector, showing characteristics of a technical rebound. **Market Trading Volume TOP10** ▪ NVIDIA (NVDA.US) latest trading price $177.19, down 4.16%, trading volume $54.829 billion ▪ Tesla (TSLA.US) latest trading price $402.51, down 1.49%, trading volume $22.684 billion ▪ Microsoft (MSFT.US) latest trading price $392.74, down 2.24%, trading volume $19.836 billion ▪ Apple (AAPL.US) latest trading price $264.17, down 3.22%, trading volume $19.045 billion ▪ Netflix (NFLX.US) latest trading price $96.24, up 13.77%, trading volume $18.632 billion ▪ Google -A (GOOGL.US) latest trading price $311.69, up 1.40%, trading volume $13.659 billion ▪ Amazon (AMZN.US) latest trading price $209.97, up 0.99%, trading volume $11.764 billion ▪ Micron Technology (MU.US) latest trading price $412.37, down 0.77%, trading volume $11.697 billion ▪ SanDisk (SNDK.US) latest trading price $635.36, down 2.54%, trading volume $11.591 billion ▪ Google -C (GOOG.US) latest trading price $311.43, up 1.39%, trading volume $10.219 billion ### 相关股票 - [NVIDIA (NVDA.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/NVDA.US.md) - [Micron Tech (MU.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/MU.US.md) - [Broadcom (AVGO.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/AVGO.US.md) - [General Motors (GM.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/GM.US.md) - [Tesla (TSLA.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/TSLA.US.md) - [Ford Motor (F.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/F.US.md) - [Nebius (NBIS.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/NBIS.US.md) - [Oracle (ORCL.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/ORCL.US.md) - [Microsoft (MSFT.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/MSFT.US.md) - [Applied Optoelectronics (AAOI.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/AAOI.US.md) - [Ensysce Biosciences (ENSC.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/ENSC.US.md) - [KORE (KORE.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/KORE.US.md) - [PureCycle Tech - CW26 (PCTTW.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/PCTTW.US.md) - [OneMedNet (ONMD.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/quote/ONMD.US.md) ## 相关资讯与研究 - [Fractile Seeks $200 Million as Nvidia Faces Inference Pressure](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/281215985.md) - [Micron’s HBM4 Win With Nvidia Sharpens AI Memory Demand Visibility](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/281200456.md) - [Nvidia’s $2 Billion Investment in Marvell: What Kind of Company Is Marvell?](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/281372238.md) - [Argentarii LLC Acquires 20,602 Shares of NVIDIA Corporation $NVDA](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/281612604.md) - [Nvidia Stock (NVDA) Braces for a Quick Snapback after a Rare Two-Quarter Losing Streak](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/news/281360100.md)
