- Nvidia posted strong quarterly earnings, yet market sentiment stayed weak and did not lift equity prices.
- Dow Jones slipped after the earnings news, reflecting the muted reaction.
- Nasdaq Composite faded, declining despite Nvidia's results.
- Oil prices fell as investors hoped for progress in US‑Iran war talks, reversing earlier gains.
Why it matters: Tech‑heavy investors lose ground as the Dow and Nasdaq retreat, while oil traders gain from the price dip; the pullback shows earnings optimism can be outweighed by geopolitical risk, curbing momentum in the record‑high S&P 500.
