- The Nasdaq Composite closed at 25,253.14 on November 9, 2026, up 673.71 points, or 2.7 percent.

- Investors are turning to US inflation data and upcoming technology earnings for fresh direction.
The Nasdaq Composite ended Monday's U.S. session at 25,253.14, gaining 673.71 points, or 2.7 percent, according to The Associated Press, published by WTOP. The closing level marked a broad rebound after the index lost 3.37 percent in the previous week and entered correction territory following Thursday's technology-led sell-off.
Technology Shares Lead Recovery
Monday's advance came as investors sought to recover from the recent rout in artificial-intelligence and semiconductor stocks. Reuters reported that technology-related shares rose as markets reassessed concerns that the Democrats' control of Congress could bring tighter regulation of artificial-intelligence systems and data centers. The report also said Nvidia fell more than 5 percent after news of an internal investigation involving Chief Executive Jensen Huang, leaving the broader technology rally uneven.
The Nasdaq's gain followed a 1.09 percent rise on Friday to 24,579.42. Based on those two closes, Monday's increase was approximately 2.74 percent. The index remained about 10 percent below its October record close, according to the AP report, so the advance represented a recovery within a volatile period rather than a return to the previous high.
Oil Prices Ease Inflation Pressure
Lower oil prices provided an additional support for risk assets. Reuters reported that U.S. crude fell 3.63 percent and Brent crude declined 4.9 percent after President Donald Trump indicated he was unlikely to order fresh attacks on Iran while talks continued. Lower energy prices can reduce immediate inflation concerns, although the market's response remains dependent on developments in the conflict and monetary policy expectations.
Inflation and Earnings Ahead
Investors now face a busy test of the recovery. Reuters said U.S. consumer-price data was due on Tuesday and that markets were pricing in roughly an 80 percent probability of a quarter-point Federal Reserve rate increase in December after a stronger-than-expected jobs report. Earnings from CoreWeave, Applied Materials and Cisco Systems are also scheduled during the week and are likely to be read for evidence of whether spending on AI infrastructure can support current valuations.
