The NASDAQ 100 index rebounded sharply on Thursday, rallying nearly 3% to around 27,950 after dipping to a two-month low near 27,200 in early trading, according to FX Street. This strong recovery contrasts with the Dow Jones Industrial Average, which showed little movement throughout the session.

FX Street reported that the NASDAQ 100’s early drop to the 27,200 area marked its lowest point in two months, before the index staged a significant bounce to close near 27,950. The move highlights the volatility seen in U.S. equities recently, with technology-focused stocks driving the NASDAQ’s gains.

For Japanese investors, the NASDAQ’s rebound may signal renewed appetite for growth stocks and could influence trading strategies amid ongoing global market fluctuations.
