Nvidia , lost around 1%, while Apple , and Alphabet , stayed broadly positive. It is set for a 0.2% gain for the week after two weeks of losses, supported by this week's firm economic data and Friday's jitters about the outage, even as conviction grows that the Fed could cut interest rates in September.
