After a week of volatility, the S&P 500 index closed lower on Friday. Investors re-evaluated artificial intelligence trading following the NVIDIA controversy, while also paying attention to the Federal Reserve's interest rate prospects.

The Nasdaq 100 index, which is dominated by technology stocks, closed down 1.2% on Friday, while the S&P 500 index fell 0.4%.

Nevertheless, both major indices still recorded gains this week.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed up 0.1%.

NVIDIA has experienced its worst week since the market sell-off triggered by tariffs in April 2025, with its market value evaporating by over $500 billion this week and falling below $4 trillion. News surrounding NVIDIA and the former CEO Jensen Huang has shaken investors' confidence in this world's largest AI chip manufacturer.

The market's concerns about NVIDIA's future leadership are intertwined with investors' doubts regarding the financing costs of broader AI infrastructure construction.

"Today, there are several different factors weighing on stocks related to chips and data centers," wrote Chequers Financial Management partner and Chief Investment Officer N of the token issuance le Tanenbaum. "Firstly, and most obviously, is the uncertainty surrounding the leadership transition at NVIDIA, which could have an impact on the broader AI ecosystem."

NVIDIA's suppliers continued their downward trend in stock prices, and even competitors such as Broadcom and AMD fell on Friday after rising the previous day.

Nevertheless, some investors believe that the fluctuations this week are just part of a market rotation that began before NVIDIA became the focus of news.

The latest inflation data released on Friday reduced the risk of the Federal Reserve raising interest rates by 50 basis points next month, providing some comfort to investors.

As of the close, the S&P 500 index fell 0.4% to 7,561.67 points;

The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.1% to 5,2347.55 points;

The Nasdaq Composite Index fell 0.9% to 2,5136.27 points;

The Nasdaq 100 index fell 1.2% to 2,7943.74 points;

The Russell 2000 Index fell by 0.3% to 2,790.49 points.

Bersenth Confronts Fed Officials: Is Inflation Caused by Energy Shocks or Excessive Demand? Debate Over the Fed's Interest Rate Hiking Path Intensifies
U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Chicago Federal Reserve Chairman Charles Evans publicly clashed over the roots of inflation. Yellen argued that inflation mainly stems from the energy supply shocks caused by the Iran war and that radical interest rate hikes should not be made on this basis; Evans, however, believes that inflation has spread to services, healthcare, and AI data center-related demands, exceeding what can be explained by rising oil prices. With recent employment and inflation data exceeding expectations, market discussions about the Federal Reserve's potential 50-basis-point interest rate hike at its December meeting have intensified.
