From 100% drop in stock to 500% jump
This sudden spotlight contrasts sharply with Cyngn's struggles. The company, public since 2021, reported just $368,000 in revenue for 2024 and $47,000 in Q1 2025, missing analyst estimates for four consecutive quarters. Its stock plummeted 100% over the past year, narrowly regaining Nasdaq compliance in March 2025 after failing to meet the exchange's minimum bid price. Yet, Thursday's rally propelled Cyngn's market cap above $35 million, driven by what traders call Nvidia's 'halo effect'—a phenomenon previously seen with stocks like Navitas Semiconductor, which surged after joining Nvidia's supply chain.

'If AI is the reason...': Viral post asks why companies are still asking for H-1Bs
A viral post claimed companies which are laying off are still looking for H-1Bs to hire. Amid a major layoff being announced by US companies, a post has gone viral which shows that Microsoft, one of the 10 companies employing foreign labor, sought 14,181 H-1Bs. The post shared the H-1B requirements of other companies, including Amazon, NVIDIA, Cisco, Goldman Sachs, Oracle, Apple etc. The post by investigative journalist Amanda Louise noted that despite tech layoffs, H-1B demand hasn't slowed down. "Microsoft just cut thousands of American they've already requested 14,181 more H-1B workers this year, and it's only Q2," the post noted. "If AI is the reason Americans are being let go, why are companies still asking for hundreds of thousands of foreign tech workers? Something doesn't add up." the post added. Social media users reacted to the post, starting the ongoing debate over H-1Bs eating up American jobs at a lower price. "AI: Another Indian," one comment read. "The obvious answer is the H1B system has ALWAYS only been about importing workers to drive down the wages of tech workers. This is why both parties, all the billionaires, and all the CEO's agree on this issue, they don't care about America - they only care about cheap workers!" one user wrote. "Any company that is firing people shouldn't be allowed to apply for H1B visas. There should be some kind of freeze period. This is just ridiculous," another wrote. "Not gonna say where I work but another big tech company. Our bosses frequently go to India on hiring sprees, while laying off thousands here. I need to learn how to farm and get a quiet place on the coast," one shared personal experience. In May, Microsoft announced cut of 6,000 roles targeting sales, management and non-coding roles. Intel plans to eliminate roughly 20 per cent of its workforce, which will come to around 21000 jobs. According to the latest data of the US Citizenship and Immigration Services, the Trump administration selected 120, 141 H-1B visa applications for 2026.

S&P 500, Nasdaq near record highs as interest rate-cut bets creep up
The S&P 500 and Nasdaq were on track to open near record levels on Thursday as robust earnings from memory-chip maker Micron fueled optimism around artificial intelligence while investors assessed a slew of economic data. The benchmark S&P 500 and tech-led Nasdaq were about 1 per cent below their all-time peaks at Wednesday's close, following a truce in the Middle East conflict. The Nasdaq 100 - a subset of the Nasdaq composite index - closed at a record high in the previous session. Semiconductor makers got a lift from a 1.3 per cent rise in Micron Technology shares premarket after the company forecast quarterly revenue above estimates, citing strong demand for its chips used in AI data-centers. Shares of Marvell Technology and Advanced Micro Devices climbed 2.3 per cent and 2.6 per cent, respectively. Nvidia rose 1.3 per cent after scaling a fresh all-time high on Wednesday. Economic data was mixed. The final reading from the U.S. Commerce Department showed gross domestic product contracted 0.5 per cent in the first quarter. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast a 0.2 per cent contraction. "A 0.5 per cent contraction is worse-than-expected, but that really reflects how much imports overwhelmed exports in the first quarter, as businesses and consumers tried to get ahead of the tariff program," said Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA Research. At 08:52 a.m. ET, Dow E-minis were up 100 points, or 0.23 per cent, S&P 500 E-minis were up 18.5 points, or 0.3 per cent. Nasdaq 100 E-minis were up 90 points, or 0.4 per cent Investors also weighed Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's remarks during his two-day congressional testimony, where he reiterated a wait-and-see approach toward interest rate cuts. President Donald Trump intensified his attacks on Powell for not cutting rates sooner. On Wednesday, Trump said he had narrowed down his choice to three or four candidates to potentially replace the Fed chair. Traders are pricing in about 63 basis points worth of rate cuts by the end of 2025, with expectations for the first cut in September. On Friday, the Personal Consumption Expenditures report - the Fed's preferred gauge of inflation - will be scrutinized to ascertain tariff-induced price changes in the U.S. economy. Some of the central bank officials scheduled to speak later in the day include Fed Cleveland President Beth Hammack, Fed Board Governor Michael Barr and Fed Minneapolis President Neel Kashkari. Shares of sportswear company Nike edged up 0.6 per cent ahead of its quarterly results.
