The latest earnings from tech giant NVIDIA and software giant Salesforce failed to boost the market. The number of initial jobless claims in the U.S. last week was lower than expected. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 36.61 points, or 0.07%, to 49,518.76 points; the Nasdaq fell 291.20 points, or 1.26%, to 22,860.87 points; the S&P 500 index fell 37.34 points, or 0.54%, to 6,908.79 points. NVIDIA's stock price fell about 5%, despite the chip giant reporting fourth-quarter earnings and revenue that exceeded expectations. This decline puts the stock on track for its worst single-day performance since last April. Other chip stocks, such as Broadcom, Lam Research, Western Digital, and Applied Materials, all fell more than 5%. AMD dropped 3.9%. Tom Graff, Chief Investment Officer at Facet, stated, "The market is currently in a strong 'prove it with facts' mode, and NVIDIA's earnings report did not fully 'prove' itself. NVIDIA is facing high expectations already priced into its stock while also encountering skepticism from the market. This could lead to volatility in the stock price for at least the next few quarters." On the other hand, one of the biggest victims of recent concerns about AI disruption, Salesforce, saw its stock price rise 3% after the software company announced its latest quarterly results exceeded expectations. However, the company's revenue forecast for fiscal year 2027 was disappointing. James Demmert, Chief Investment Officer at Main Street Research, commented, "Salesforce's earnings performance is solid, but its weak guidance does not help quell the emotional collapse in the software industry. Due to advancements in AI, Salesforce faces a challenging future, but we also believe the recent decline in the software sector has been somewhat excessive." It is certain that software stocks did rise on Thursday, with the iShares Expanded Tech Software Sector ETF (IGV) increasing by 1%. However, the fund remains in bear market territory, as its price has fallen about 30% from recent highs. Aside from the software sector, other sectors in the market also rose during today's trading, including financials, energy, and real estate. Notably, stocks such as JP Morgan, ExxonMobil, and CBRE Group were among the winners. Before Thursday, U.S. stocks experienced an encouraging trading day on Wednesday. Software and tech stocks rebounded during regular trading hours. Nevertheless, sentiment in software and cybersecurity stocks has remained weak this year, as the market continues to worry that rapidly evolving AI product capabilities may disrupt the business of existing software providers On Thursday, economic data showed that the number of initial jobless claims in the United States last week was 212,000, lower than expected. The U.S. Department of Labor reported on Thursday that the number of first-time applicants for unemployment benefits rose slightly last week but remained within historical ranges, indicating that despite weak hiring, employers are still continuing to delay layoffs. Seasonally adjusted, for the week ending February 21, the total number of initial jobless claims was 212,000, an increase of 4,000 from the revised total of the previous week, but lower than the Dow Jones consensus expectation of 215,000. Looking at the longer-term trend, the four-week moving average increased by only 750 to 220,250. The number of continuing claims for unemployment benefits reported a week later decreased by 31,000 to 1.833 million ### 相關股票 - [GraniteShares 2x Long NVDA Daily ETF (NVDL.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/NVDL.US.md) - [AXS 1.5X NVDA Bear Daily ETF (NVDS.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/NVDS.US.md) - [ISHRS S&P Glb It (IXN.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/IXN.US.md) - [Direxion Semicon Bull 3X (SOXL.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/SOXL.US.md) - [GraniteShares 2x Short NVDA Daily ETF (NVD.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/NVD.US.md) - [YieldMax NVDA Option Income Strategy ETF (NVDY.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/NVDY.US.md) - [Salesforce (CRM.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/CRM.US.md) - [SPDR S&P Semicon (XSD.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/XSD.US.md) - [NVIDIA (NVDA.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/NVDA.US.md) - [S&P 500 (.SPX.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/.SPX.US.md) - [Direxion Daily NVDA Bull 2X Shares (NVDU.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/NVDU.US.md) - [VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/SMH.US.md) - [Spdr Select Tech (XLK.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/XLK.US.md) - [iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/SOXX.US.md) - [SPDR S&P Software (XSW.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/XSW.US.md) - [iShares Expanded Tech Software Sector ETF (IGV.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/IGV.US.md) - [Invesco Semiconductors ETF (PSI.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/PSI.US.md) - [Leverage Shares 2X Long CRM Daily ETF (CRMG.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/CRMG.US.md) - [T-Rex 2X Inverse NVIDIA Daily Target ETF (NVDQ.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/NVDQ.US.md) - [T-Rex 2X Long NVIDIA Daily Target ETF (NVDX.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/NVDX.US.md) - [Direxion Daily NVDA Bear 1X ETF (NVDD.US)](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/quote/NVDD.US.md) ## 相關資訊與研究 - [Nvidia Asked by US Senators to Provide Details on Groq Deal](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/news/279931631.md) - [NVIDIA Corporation $NVDA Position Lessened by AAFMAA Wealth Management & Trust LLC](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/news/280269555.md) - [LPU: Nvidia popularizes a new AI acronym](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/news/279662346.md) - [Nvidia In Crosshairs As Senators Question China Export Controls](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/news/280338466.md) - [NVIDIA could shake up AI economy with Rubin platform](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/news/280132707.md)
