A selloff in the stock market’s most-influential group drove the Nasdaq 100 to its lowest level since November as Nvidia Corp.’s results failed to revive the artificial-intelligence rally.

The S&P 500 fell 1.6%, erasing its gains for 2025. Megacaps bore the brunt of the selling as good-but-not-great numbers from Nvidia Corp. disappointed investors. The chipmaker sank 8.5%.
