🔴 Tech ETF (AIQ) is trading 1.7% down in pre-market ahead of NVIDIA's second-quarter results

AIQ is trading 1.7% down in pre-market ahead of NVIDIA reporting second-quarter results after the August 26, 2026, close.

• NVIDIA’s results are viewed as a major test of artificial-intelligence spending and broader semiconductor sentiment.
• Slightly negative Nasdaq futures and uncertainty around the 8:30 a.m. releases for July PCE inflation, second-quarter GDP, personal income, and durable-goods orders are reinforcing weakness.
• The data could alter Federal Reserve rate expectations and pressure growth-oriented technology shares.
