The Nasdaq Composite is heading into Thursday's US session after a strong technology-led rebound. The index closed Wednesday, November 11, at 25,466.19 points, gaining 400.31 points or 1.60 percent. The close was reported by Nasdaq and matches the closing data cited by CNBC. The report is a US-market preview based on the last completed Nasdaq trading session; the exchange had not yet opened at the configured Europe/Berlin midday slot.
AI optimism drives the rebound
Wednesday's advance followed a difficult start to the week for technology shares. CoreWeave rose sharply after reporting stronger-than-expected third-quarter revenue and raising its 2026 operating income and revenue guidance, according to CNBC. The move helped revive interest in AI infrastructure names, while Nvidia also recovered after substantial losses in the previous two sessions.
Reuters described the CoreWeave results as easing concerns about excessive AI expenditure. It reported gains in several AI infrastructure and semiconductor shares, including Nebius, Applied Digital, Marvell Technology and Micron. The market response nevertheless remains sensitive to questions about data-center deployment, financing costs and the returns on large capital investments.
Rates remain a competing risk
The rebound did not remove the macroeconomic pressure on growth stocks. October consumer prices rose 0.4 percent month over month, above economists' expectations, and the data increased market expectations for another Federal Reserve rate increase in December, CNBC reported. Higher interest rates can weigh on long-duration technology valuations, leaving investors to balance renewed enthusiasm for AI demand against tighter financial conditions.
Wednesday's US bond-market holiday also meant that Treasury trading provided less of its usual signal during the equity session. The next Nasdaq session will therefore offer a fresh test of whether the AI-led recovery can broaden beyond a short covering move or remains vulnerable to renewed rate and financing concerns.
