U.S. stocks opened lower with all three major indices falling, as Nvidia invests $2 billion in Synopsys, igniting chip stocks.

On December 1, the US stock market opened with a slap in the face, with all three major indices opening lower. The Dow fell by 0.63%, the S&P 500 dropped by 0.6%, and the Nasdaq was even worse, plummeting by 0.85%.

However, there are two highlights in the chip sector. Synopsys surged directly by 6.5%, due to NVIDIA's massive investment of 2 billion USD—this move is quite hardcore. On the other hand, Wolfspeed also did not back down, soaring nearly 8%, as they received almost 700 million USD in cash tax rebates; the arrival of real cash is impressive.

The overall market is weak, but individual stock stories continue to unfold.
