Dow Jones12-16
 

By Chelsey Dulaney

The Nasdaq composite fell Monday as Broadcom and other AI-related stocks continued to weigh on tech shares.

Indexes have been volatile this month, as worries around the artificial-intelligence boom have knocked technology stocks. Broadcom dropped again Monday, along with Oracle and CoreWeave, while Nvidia edged higher. Nasdaq finished the day down 0.6%, while the Dow industrials fell 0.1% and the S&P 500 fell 0.2%.

Gold and silver remain standouts in global markets, with gold futures settling near a record high, up 0.2%. Bitcoin meanwhile dropped 3.1% to $85,806 as investors shed riskier assets, pushing down shares of crypto-specialists like Strategy and Coinbase.

Major economic data lies ahead. Delayed job data for October and November is set for Tuesday, followed by a key inflation gauge on Thursday, when earnings from Nike and FedEx are due too.

Central banks in Europe and Japan will also make interest-rate decisions this week. The yen strengthened against the dollar, while Asian stock indexes dropped and tech stocks tracked U.S moves from last week. Data from China highlighted slowing economic momentum.

In other recent trading:

Treasury yields declined, with the 10-year recently trading at 4.181%
