Good MorningEquity markets were little changed on Thursday despite a better-than-expected report from NVIDIA. The report showed solid demand despite restrictions on sales to China, and the guidance was also good. The bad news is that NVIDIA shares, which opened with a gain of more than 5%, sold off throughout the session, indicating resistance at a critical level. If NVIDIA's market cannot move higher soon, the odds are high that it will move down to retest support, possibly as low as $120, before the end of summer.
Tariff news also played a role in Thursday's action. On Wednesday, a Federal Court nullified the reciprocal and retaliatory tariffs that were enacted in April, but they were reinstated on Thursday by an appellate court. The takeaway for investors is that tariff-induced volatility is unlikely to end soon and will center on U.S. lawmakers as much as the U.S.'s trading partners. With this in play and a potential top in NVIDIA shares, the S&P 500 may struggle for direction over the summer if not correct to lower levels.
