The benchmark S&P 500 and blue-chip Dow closed Thursday at one-week highs, with AI bellwether Nvidia managing modest gains after its quarterly forecast, while investors took comfort from robust economic data. In premarket trading on Friday, Nvidia dropped 0.8%. Market attention is now focused on a S&P business activity survey due at 9:45 a.m. ET, with forecasts pointing to services activity still in expansion territory, while manufacturing is expected to remain in contraction.
