However, the Dow turned to selling throughout the day as concerns about a slowdown in economic growth emerged and remained sluggish. On the other hand, the Nasdaq remained solidly supported by purchases due to the recovery of NVIDIA in the semiconductor industry and the anticipation of lower interest rates, and closed mixed. By sector, semiconductors and semiconductor manufacturing equipment, pharmaceuticals and biotechs rose, while energy declined.
