U.S. stocks closed modestly higher on Wednesday after a choppy session, staging a recovery from recent declines as technology shares regained momentum ahead of Nvidia’s highly awaited quarterly results.
Nvidia surged over 5% in after-hours trading after the chipmaker projected fourth-quarter revenue above Street expectations. This jump came on top of a 2.8% gain during regular trading, further boosting sentiment across global chip and tech stocks.
However, gains were briefly trimmed after the Federal Reserve’s latest meeting minutes indicated caution. Policymakers warned that cutting rates prematurely could undermine progress made on cooling inflation.
By the closing bell, the major U.S. indices ended as follows:
Dow Jones: +47.03 pts (0.10%) at 46,138.77
S&P 500: +24.84 pts (0.38%) at 6,642.16
Nasdaq Composite: +131.38 pts (0.59%) at 22,564.23
10-year U.S. Treasury yield edged up to 4.14%.
U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) moved slightly higher by 0.1% to 100.17.
Spot Gold gained 0.7% to $4,108.22/oz, reflecting safe-haven interest.
Crude Oil remained steady:
Brent at $63.51/barrel
WTI near $59.40/barrel
Asian Markets: Strong Start as Chip Stocks Rally
Asia-Pacific markets moved higher on Thursday after Nvidia’s upbeat results lifted global tech sentiment.
Japan:
Nikkei 225 jumped 3.7%
Topix gained 1.67%
Bond yields continued climbing, with the 30-year yield hitting a record 3.375% and the 20-year reaching 2.853%, the highest since 1999.
South Korea:
Kospi gained 2.63%
Kosdaq rose 1.75%
Australia:
ASX/S&P 200 advanced 1%
Gift Nifty indicates a positive start for Indian markets.
For today, Nifty spot is expected to trade between 25,900 and 26,300.
Indian benchmark indices closed higher on November 19, with Nifty reclaiming the 26,000 mark. Markets saw a strong rebound on expectations of progress toward an India–US trade agreement, supported by constructive comments from the Union Commerce Minister.
The IT sector led the surge amid renewed optimism of Fed rate cuts, supported by softer U.S. labour data and favourable forex moves. PSU banks also gained on merger-related updates and improving fundamentals.
At close:
Sensex: +513.45 pts (0.61%) at 85,186.47
Nifty: +142.60 pts (0.55%) at 26,052.65
In the broader market, the Midcap index inched up 0.2%, while the Small-cap index slipped 0.4%.
Nifty has formed a bullish candle with a higher high, indicating strong buying interest after the previous session’s pullback. Moving back above 26,000 strengthens the positive sentiment.
Key levels to watch:
It is currently near last month’s high of 26,104. A breakout above this could push it toward the all-time high of 26,277.
On the downside, 25,700 remains a crucial support zone—aligned with the gap from November 12, the 20-day EMA, and key retracement levels.
The daily RSI (14) trending upward and rebounding from its 9-period average supports continued bullishness.
