Regular-session close on Thursday, October 15, 2026, 4:00 p.m. New York time. Stock prices: Yahoo Finance, cross-checked against Nasdaq's official close. Indices, the 10-year Treasury yield and oil (Brent and WTI front-month futures): Yahoo Finance daily closes for the same date.
Nvidia opened at $215.30, below the previous close of $221.30, and traded between $212.85 and $218.47. It finished $4.38 above the day's low, recovering part of the early drop but still well short of the prior session's level.
Volume reached 126.8 million shares, 16.00% above the average of 109.3 million shares, so the selling came on heavier than usual activity. The stock trailed the Nasdaq Composite, which rose 0.08% to 26,713.03, by 1.92 percentage points. The S&P 500 gained 0.33% to 7,744.06 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 1.08% to 52,177.69, while the US 10-year Treasury yield eased 10.1 basis points to 5.09%.
Chip and hardware peers were mixed. AMD (AMD) slipped 1.50%, TSMC (TSM) fell 1.80%, Intel lost 2.80% and Dell dropped 6.80%, while Micron rose 1.87%. Nvidia now sits 10.74% below its 52-week high of $243.37 and 32.24% above its 52-week low of $164.27.
None of the sources fetched for this article named a company-specific cause for Nvidia's decline, and no new Nvidia release or filing tied to the session was found. The move is best read against the indices and peers above, with Nvidia lagging a market that closed higher.
The backdrop for Nvidia-linked names was weak. As reported by TheStreet, CoreWeave, which rents out computing power built on Nvidia chips to AI developers, fell more than 15% on October 14 to close at $65.78 and slid about 6% further in premarket trading on October 15.
The same report said yields on CoreWeave bonds due 2031 rose above 16% and that chip stocks in the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index had lost substantial market value over six sessions.
Per TheStreet, Reuters reported that CoreWeave is loss-making and carries about $50 billion in debt, which has put the financing behind AI data center buildouts in focus for investors in the chip supply chain.
