what happened

The S&P 500 slipped 0.4% on Friday and the Nasdaq 100 lost 1.2%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.1%, Stocktwits reported. The small-cap Russell 2000 fell 1.2%. Semiconductor ETFs SMH and the iShares Semiconductor ETF dropped roughly 3% to 3.6%, mostly because of Nvidia. The Vanguard Information Technology ETF (VGT) declined 1.7%.

Nvidia shares lost about 13% over the week, their weakest stretch since April last year. Jensen Huang resigned as chief executive on Thursday after allegations about personal relationships, including one with an Nvidia employee and an individual American intelligence suspects of covert ties to Beijing. Investors are now looking ahead to Nvidia's earnings report on November 17.

Wholesale prices rose 0.3% in October, a little below the 0.4% gain Dow Jones analysts had expected. On an annual basis, producer prices climbed 6.5%, the sharpest twelve-month increase since November 2022.

why it matters

Markets are weighing two questions: whether Nvidia can hold its position without Huang, and how Nvidia's November 17 results and Anthropic's IPO on November 19 will shape tech sentiment. Softer-than-expected producer price data offered some relief, tempering the market's reaction.
