U.S. stocks rebounded on Friday, with the Nasdaq Composite gaining 1.6% and the S&P 500 rising 1%, following Thursday’s sharp sell-off that pushed the Nasdaq into correction territory after a 5.5% plunge. 

The S&P 500 fell 4.4%, while the Dow Jones dropped more than 1,800 points (3.4%), wiping out $1 trillion in market value from the Magnificent Seven stocks.  Concerns over potential restrictions on data center expansion weighed heavily on AI-related shares. 

Meanwhile, October payrolls rose by a stronger-than-expected 165,000, versus forecasts of 59,000, while unemployment declined to 4.1%. Despite Friday’s recovery, all three major indexes remained on track for weekly losses.
