Stock market today: Dow rises, S&P 500 and Nasdaq slip as AI jitters return ahead of Micron earnings
Dow rises as Micron's strong earnings ease AI jitters, S&P 500 and Nasdaq slip
📍 Aftermath
The stock market trend quieted with Micron's earnings report, which initially eased AI-related fears and led to a rise in the Dow, but ultimately resulted in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq ending lower due to tech weakness. Micron's record fiscal third-quarter results and growing market value had lifted some chip stocks, but AI jitters continued to pressure the tech sector.
The story appears to have concluded without a definitive resolution, with investors rotating out of tech and AI plays.
