Transcript
00:00All right, now let's take a look at the U.S. market heat map,
00:03which provides a visual snapshot of the S&P 500.
00:07Let me show you at Finviz's stock screener maps.
00:12All right, this is S&P 500 across different sectors and also industries.
00:17So on this map, the size of each box represents the company's market capitalization,
00:21meaning the larger the box, the bigger the company.
00:23And the stocks are grouped by sectors,
00:25giving investors a quick overview of market sentiment
00:28and it helps identify which sectors and companies are leading the market
00:32and which ones are actually under pressure.
00:34So green means gains and trading higher,
00:36whereas red indicates losses and trading lower.
00:39So the darker the shade, the bigger the move, whether positive or negative.
00:42And I'm going to start with Meta first.
00:45The text actually lies under Internet Content and Information.
00:48Meta shows a dark red color.
00:50So it was down or decreased a little by 0.22%
00:55and now standing at 593.87%.
00:59But different from Google, Google shows green color.
01:03So it was increased by 2.13%
01:06and standing at 326.56% under communication services.
01:13But I have a latest update on Meta,
01:15which shows attorneys for the state of Tennessee
01:17told a jury in Nashville on Monday that Meta Platform's leadership
01:22disregarded internal research about its Instagram platform's impact on teenagers
01:26as the company sought to maximize profit from young users.
01:30So during opening statements in a seven-week trial in state court in Tennessee,
01:34the state's lawyer said Meta researchers repeatedly flagged
01:37that some teenagers were compulsively using the platform,
01:41leading to eating disorders, depression and self-harm.
01:44But despite those warnings, Meta did not disable features such as auto-play,
01:49notifications and infinite scroll that the lawyer said
01:52were designed to keep teens on Instagram as long as possible
01:56and increase the number of ads they viewed.
01:58All right, that's the latest update on Meta.
02:01Moving on, I'm going to touch on NVIDIA.
02:03NVIDIA is here, shows a red color as well.
02:06So it was down by quite a significant number,
02:09a percentage of 4.99%,
02:12and now standing at the level of 196.51%.
02:16And the latest update on NVIDIA,
02:18NVIDIA will make a $5 billion equity investment
02:21in Safe Super Intelligence as part of a strategic partnership
02:25between the chipmaker and the startup co-founded
02:27by OpenAI's former chief scientist,
02:30Ilya Sutskover, a person briefed on the deal, said.
02:33The two companies announced the deal Monday morning
02:35without disclosing financial terms.
02:37And the funding will boost SSI's available computing resources
02:41and gives them access to NVIDIA's cutting-edge Vera Rubin hardware,
02:45the company says.
02:46So that's the latest update on NVIDIA.
02:49And I'm going to move on to Amazon.
02:51Amazon shows a dark red color.
02:53So it was down by a little, by 0.31%,
02:57and now standing at the level of 231.39%.
03:02And this is under internet retail consumer silica.
03:05So Amazon on Wednesday cut jobs in artificial intelligence,
03:08its artificial general intelligence group,
03:12marking the latest in a series of smaller reductions
03:14across the company since a much larger one in January.
03:18So artificial general intelligence is a hypothetical AI system
03:22that surpasses human intelligence
03:24and can learn, grow, and operate autonomously.
03:27So many of the top AI companies are working to develop similar systems
03:31with the hope of deploying them to solve difficult problems.
