Nvidia Stock, Other AI Names Rebound After Sell-Off

Nvidia, AMD, Micron and other semiconductor shares rose in premarket and early trading Friday, recovering a portion of the sharp losses recorded over the prior two sessions. The bounce follows what MarketWatch described as a "violent" AI sell-off that Yahoo Finance called the sector's worst since 2020. Asian markets mirrored the move, with the Nikkei gaining for a third day and South Korea's KOSDAQ jumping roughly 5 percent. Broader U.S. indexes were mixed as investors awaited a key inflation report that could influence Federal Reserve policy.

  1. Nvidia and AI chip stocks rebound after steep sell-off

    Nvidia, AMD, Micron and other semiconductor shares rose in premarket and early trading Friday, recovering a portion of the sharp losses recorded over the prior two sessions. The bounce follows what MarketWatch described as a "violent" AI sell-off that Yahoo Finance called the sector's worst since 2020. Asian markets mirrored the move, with the Nikkei gaining for a third day and South Korea's KOSDAQ jumping roughly 5 percent. Broader U.S. indexes were mixed as investors awaited a key inflation report that could influence Federal Reserve policy.

    Why it matters

    The rebound attempts to stabilize a sector that had led the market higher for much of 2024 before a sudden rotation triggered heavy profit-taking. Traders are watching whether the bounce holds or represents a brief oversold relief rally ahead of crucial CPI data. Meanwhile, a separate controversy involving CEO Jensen Huang has surfaced in single-sourced reports, adding political risk to the export-control outlook.

    What is confirmed

    • Nvidia, AMD and Micron led the chip sector higher following the worst sell-off since 2020.
    • Asian tech rebounded at midday with the Nikkei up for a third session and the KOSDAQ jumping around 5%.
    • U.S. stock indexes traded mixed ahead of a key inflation report that could sway the Federal Reserve.

    Still unconfirmed

    • Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang had a romantic relationship with a woman believed to be a Chinese spy, prompting a board investigation.
    • U.S. lawmakers from both parties are pushing to ban AI chip exports to China after the Huang scandal.
    • Morgan Stanley cut SK hynix's target price by 38%.

    What to watch next

    • Whether the premarket bounce extends through the full session and into next week
    • Release of the U.S. CPI report and its impact on Fed rate expectations
    • Any official comment from Nvidia or U.S. authorities on the Huang allegations and potential export restrictions
