Nasdaq Composite jumps as oil slides: stock market today, Nov 9

What moved. CNBC's live blog at 11 a.m. ET had the Dow up 900 points, or 1.8%, with Goldman Sachs and Caterpillar helping. Yahoo Finance's ticker, taken a little earlier, showed the Dow at 52,160.63 (up 1.71%), the S&P 500 at 7,530.10 (up 2.08%) and the Nasdaq at 25,205.84 (up 2.55%). The Nasdaq figure differs by source and time. CNBC's text says 2.7%, while its headline says 2%. So read it as roughly 2.5% to 2.7%.

Why oil matters. Brent fell about 4% to near $94 a barrel, and US crude (WTI) fell about 3% to around $87, CNBC says. The Globe and Mail ties the drop to talks that continued and to a lower chance of new strikes, while saying that supply worries near the Strait of Hormuz had not gone away. We leave the politics there. For markets, the point is cheaper energy.

Tech. CNBC reports that Amazon rose 5%, Broadcom and AMD each rose 5%, Tesla and Alphabet gained more than 3%, and Microsoft added 2%. CNBC links part of the move to a rebound after Thursday's AI-driven sell-off, with the Nasdaq described as oversold. Nvidia went the other way, down about 4% to 6% depending on the time of day.

Canada and funds. The S&P/TSX Composite was up 1.33% at 36,265.14 at 10:38 a.m. ET, the Globe and Mail says. That is the index behind the 'TSX index' searches. Many people also search for VOO, a fund that tracks the S&P 500, so a move in the S&P 500 shows up there too.

Rates and fear. Yahoo Finance shows the 10-year US Treasury yield near 4.85% and the VIX, a gauge of expected swings, at 20.73, down 19.11%. Those are intraday readings.

What comes next. The October CPI report is due Tuesday, and PPI on Friday. Investors want clues about the Federal Reserve's next move. A one-day rally says little about what CPI will show.
