WALL STREET WHIPSAWED TO SUBDUED CLOSE
Wall Street took investors for quite a ride on Thursday.
They started the day by shrugging off Nvidia NVDA.O guidance that wasn't quite as rosy as they might have liked, choosing instead to accentuate the positive GDP economic data.
And what appeared to be a nice rally seemed to be gaining steam.
Until it didn't.
At one point, the Nasdaq was up more than 1%, but by the end of the session the tech-heavy index was off 0.2%. The S&P 500 closed essentially unchanged, while the blue-chip Dow posted a healthy 0.6% advance.
In short, the stock market exhibited the mood swings typical of light-volume, late summer, pre-Labor Day trading.
Nvidia's stock tumbled 6.4% on the day, after failing to meet sky-high expectations, but the chipmaker's disappointing guidance wasn't quite as contagious as feared; of the "magnificent seven" group of megacaps that have benefited the most from the artificial intelligence hullabaloo, five notched gains, while Alphabet GOOGL.O joined Nvidia in the red.
Much of the NVDA gloom lifted in the wake of generally upbeat economic data, particularly the Commerce Department's revised GDP take, which showed the U.S. economy grew at a faster-than-expected pace in the second quarter and consumer spending was more robust than previously thought.
Winning today's value vs. growth tug-of-war, value .IVX rose 0.4%, while growth .IGX dipped 0.3%.
Energy .SPNY and airlines .SPCOMAIR were the clear outperformers.
On Friday, before they sail into the three-day Labor Day weekend, investors will be treated to the Commerce Department's comprehensive July Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) report, which will cover income growth, spending, saving and, of course, inflation.
