NVIDIA

Bob Pisani, CNBC's NYSE man, notes that this is the fifth time the stock has lost more than $200 billion in market capitalization in a single day, but Tuesday's development tops it off.
- The share lost 9.5 percent.
- Since June 20, it has fallen by 23.3%. However, in 2024, it will rise by 118%.
- The stock lost another 2% in after-hours trading. The decline came after Bloomberg reported that the U.S. Department of Justice was taking a closer look at Nvidia's antitrust concerns.
