The Nasdaq Composite gained Tuesday, driven by Nvidia shares, as investors shrugged of concerns of mounting geopolitical tensions between Ukraine and Russia.
The Nasdaq popped 1.04% to finish at 18,987.47, while the S&P 500 gained 0.4% to end at 5,916.98. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dipped 120.66 points, or 0.28%, to settle at 43,268.94.
One bright spot was technology stocks and Nvidia, which gained nearly 5% ahead of its closely watched earnings report Wednesday. Walmart added 3% after posting better-than-expected earnings and hiking its outlook on strong discretionary spending. Tesla rose 2%, bringing its month-to-date rally to 38%. Shares are headed for their best month since January 2023. Alphabet and Amazon also added more than 1%.
