Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) shares are trading higher Friday as the stock recovers from a dip Thursday following June's inflation data release.
The Details:
Thursday's June inflation data came in cooler-than-expected, and the Consumer Price Index marked its lowest print since May 2020 with headline CPI inflation slowing from 3.3% in May 2024 to 3% in June 2024.
Anticipating rate cuts in the near-term, investors rotated out of mega cap tech stocks and into small cap names and debt-heavy sectors causing the Russel 3000 Index to gain more than 3% Thursday. Nvidia led the Nasdaq lower to close down 364 points Thursday, just one day after marking another record closing high on Wednesday.
