Nvidia rose 1%, clawing back a 3% loss following a Bloomberg report that the U.S. Justice Department sent subpoenas to the chipmaker. The move comes after Nvidia tumbled more than 9% Tuesday amid a broader pullback in semiconductors

Some megacap technology and chip stocks regained some footing Wednesday, with Advanced Micro Devices and Tesla rallying about 4% and 5%, respectively. Meta Platforms and the VanEck Semiconductor ETF edged up about 1%.

Stocks bounced off their lows as the so-called yield curve of the Treasury market returned to a normal state. The curve had been inverted with the 10-year rate lower than the 2-year yield.

The 30-stock Dow fell more than 600 points, or 1.5%, while the S&P 500 slid 2.1%. The Nasdaq dropped 3.3%.
