Good Afternoon! 

Hey, everyone. It's Adam from Elite Trade Club. 

Today’s Closing Bell Roundup is sponsored by Percent.

Here’s what moved the market today.

Markets 📈

The S&P 500 closed at a new record high on Wednesday thanks to broad gains in U.S. stocks. The Nasdaq was the biggest winner, with the small-cap Russell 2K pulling up second.

  • DJIA [+0.2%]

  • S&P 500 [+1.1%]

  • Nasdaq [+1.9%]

  • Russell 2K [+1.4%]

Private credit deals averaged a 12% return in 20231 and the asset class is projected to hit $2.3T by 2027.

The problem: High minimums and large deal sizes have historically put private credit out of reach except to larger institutional investors.

On Percent, everyday accredited investors can invest in private credit with as little as $500 and gain access to:

  • Double digit yield potential: Percent’s Q1 LTM net APY was over 14% after fees.

  • Shorter term offerings: The average investment term is 9 months.

  • Monthly cash flow: Most deals offer cash flow through monthly interest payments.

  • Diversification: Assets from domestic to international deals.

Market-Moving News 🔎 

Nvidia Surpasses Apple in Market Cap 📈

Nvidia's [NVDA +5.1%] remarkable ascent in the stock market saw it surpass Apple in market capitalization on Wednesday, securing its position as the second-most valuable public company in the U.S., trailing only behind Microsoft. The chipmaker's meteoric rise reflects investors' bullish outlook on its pivotal role in the artificial intelligence revolution.

Nvidia Milestone 💰
Achieving a significant milestone, Nvidia crossed the $3 trillion market cap mark, fueled by a surge of over 5% in its share price. With a market value of $3.019 trillion at market close, Nvidia's rapid growth trajectory solidifies its position as a dominant force in the tech industry.

Rapid Growth 🚀
Investors continue to flock to Nvidia, buoyed by its impressive first-quarter earnings report and its unparalleled market share in AI chips for data centers. The company's data center business witnessed a staggering 427% revenue increase year-over-year, garnering widespread confidence in its ability to sustain substantial growth.

Apple's Challenge 🍏
While Nvidia thrives, Apple faces challenges stemming from stagnant sales growth and strategic uncertainties. With its shares up only 5% this year, Apple grapples with declining iPhone sales and lingering concerns about demand in key markets, including China.

Tech Titans ⚙️
The reshuffling of market cap rankings underscores the evolving dynamics in the tech sector. Apple, once the frontrunner in market valuation, now faces stiff competition from Nvidia and Microsoft, both of which benefit from growing investor interest in AI infrastructure and related technologies.

Evolution & Volatility 🔄
From its origins in gaming hardware to its current dominance in AI and data center solutions, Nvidia's journey has been marked by significant evolution and volatility. The company's strategic pivot towards AI has propelled its stock to unprecedented heights, with shares surging over 3,290% in the past five years.
