Apple Leads Five Stocks to Watch as Nvidia Slides, Yields Rise
Apple leads five stocks that are standing near potential buy points, even as Nvidia's slide after CEO Jensen Huang's resignation and rising Treasury yields cloud the market. The Nasdaq ended the week below a key level despite posting its best week in two months.
Apple leads five stocks that are standing near potential buy points, even as Nvidia's slide and rising Treasury yields weigh on Wall Street, after a week that left the market sending mixed signals.
The mix matters for US investors. Strong weekly gains sit beside a weak close for the tech-heavy Nasdaq.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average, the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq each posted their best week in two months. Earlier in the week, the Nasdaq also staged a follow-through day, a signal market watchers use to confirm that a new rally attempt is holding.
Then came the setback. Nvidia (NVDA) extended its losses after Jensen Huang resigned amid a scandal, and Treasury yields kept climbing. The Nasdaq closed the week back below a key level.
Apple in the lead
Apple stock has been a bright spot. It has hit a record high and has been described as a safe haven while Nvidia struggles, and it now tops a list of five stocks sitting near potential buy points.
A buy point is a price level where chart-based investors look for a stock to break out of a base pattern. The full list of five names and their exact entry levels was not available in the material published so far.
Other stocks at highs
Other names have also been climbing while Nvidia falls. Eli Lilly shot to a new high and was among nine stocks added to a widely followed stock list. Three stocks favored by Warren Buffett reached record highs as Nvidia sank.
Ascendis, ranked among the top 1% of stocks on one measure, led nine additions to best-stock lists on November 13, 2026. Those lists include the IBD 50, a ranking of leading growth stocks.
Railroad stocks are also being watched for breakouts. Diesel prices have stayed stubbornly high, and Five Below is eyeing a buy point after an earnings boom.
Futures for the Dow rose after Nvidia steadied from its tumble on news of Huang's exit, while yields moved higher again. Investors now face a market that has rallied for a week yet has not cleared the level it needs to confirm the recovery.
