The Nasdaq Composite closed Wednesday, November 11, at 25,466.19, gaining 400.31 points, or 1.6 percent, in the late-session rebound of the US technology market. The index recovered from Tuesday's close of 25,065.87, according to the Associated Press.
AI stocks lead the rebound
Technology shares drove the advance as investors reassessed recent concerns about the durability and financing of artificial-intelligence investment. The Associated Press described the move as a rebound in AI stocks and reported that the Nasdaq's gain was the strongest among the major US benchmarks. The S&P 500 rose 1.3 percent to 7,619.38, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.5 percent to 52,486.49.
CoreWeave was a central catalyst for the sector-wide recovery. The AI infrastructure provider reported stronger-than-expected quarterly results and raised its outlook, helping to ease concerns about its debt-funded expansion. Investopedia reported that CoreWeave's third-quarter revenue reached nearly 3.7 billion US dollars and that the company lifted its full-year revenue forecast to 13.3 billion US dollars.
Chip shares regain ground
Nvidia also participated in the recovery after falling sharply during the first two sessions of the week. Investopedia reported that the stock was recently up nearly 5 percent during Wednesday's trading, while the broader semiconductor group advanced. Memory-chip and equipment shares also posted strong gains, reinforcing the Nasdaq's concentration in technology and growth companies.
The rebound followed a weaker Tuesday session, when hotter-than-expected October inflation data lifted interest-rate concerns and weighed on growth shares. The US Treasury market was closed Wednesday for Veterans Day, leaving investors without a regular bond-market session to reassess the previous day's rise in yields. The Nasdaq's gain therefore reflected a renewed appetite for AI-linked equities rather than a fresh Treasury-market signal.
With the index back above Tuesday's close but still moving through a volatile period for technology valuations, the next sessions will likely continue to be shaped by evidence on AI demand, corporate financing and interest-rate expectations. Further market direction remains dependent on whether earnings and guidance can support the sector's substantial investment plans.
