Tuesday's decline followed a 0.56% drop on Monday, when the Nasdaq closed at 26,186.41 with the index down as much as 1.3% at its session lows. With the Nasdaq now trading roughly 4.4% below its 52-week high of 27,190.21 and well above its 52-week low of 20,690.25, the two-session slide has left the tech-heavy [...] Tuesday's session showed tentative signs of stabilisation in some of the hardest-hit AI-adjacent names, with Coherent and Advanced Micro Devices among the stocks posting gains even as the broader index closed lower for a second straight day. Losses in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq were mitigated by gains in a number of AI-connected stocks that had been sold off heavily on Monday, suggesting investors were beginning to differentiate between companies seen as more insulated from the safety debate and [...] The index opened at 26,140.23 and briefly pushed to a session high of 26,172.12 in early trading before a sharp reversal took hold, dragging the Nasdaq down to an intraday low of 25,943.31 by late morning as selling pressure intensified across technology and AI-linked names.","published":"Sun, 20 Sep 2026 09:00:00 GMT"},{"title":"Stock Market Investors Just Got Bad News From the Federal Reserve.

The S&P 500 is up about 11%, the Nasdaq Composite has gained about 14%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average is up about 7%. But the Federal Reserve's latest rate decision has created a new risk for investors. The Fed raised interest rates last week for the first time in more than three years. [...] The S&P 500, Nasdaq and Dow could still face a correction if the pressure from higher rates increases. The historical data shows that all three major indexes have experienced sizeable declines after the beginning of previous Fed tightening cycles.\n\nInvestors should therefore watch the next Fed moves closely. The key issues are whether another rate hike comes in 2026, how long rates remain at higher levels, and whether inflation continues to stay above the Fed's target. [...] That would be an unusually strong pace of earnings growth. The Motley Fool said such growth, excluding periods immediately following recessions, has not been seen in more than three decades.\n\nArtificial intelligence is one of the biggest drivers behind those earnings expectations. Companies are spending heavily on AI infrastructure, which is supporting growth across parts of the technology sector.","published":"Sun, 20 Sep 2026 10:54:40 GMT"}]
