Dow Jones Rises 550 Points Amid Tech Selloff
Why Dow Jones rose nearly 550 points on Tuesday but Nasdaq 100 fell 1% · CNBC TV 18

On Tuesday, the Dow Jones rose nearly 550 points while the Nasdaq 100 fell 1%.

Investors moved their money from tech stocks, especially semiconductor companies, to older, more traditional companies like Sherwin-Williams, Coca-Cola, and Boeing.

These older companies had good earnings reports, which made their stocks go up.

Tech stocks, especially those related to chips, went down because of concerns about competition and deals related to artificial intelligence.

The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index is now down 25% from its highest point.

On Wednesday, the Federal Reserve will decide on interest rates, and big tech companies like Microsoft and Meta will report their earnings, which could affect the market.
