  • Here are some of the major companies whose stocks moved on the week's news.

The article from The Wall Street Journal discusses several key stock movements and corporate events from the past week. General Motors (GM) announced a $10 billion share buyback and raised its dividend, leading to a significant increase in its stock price. Nvidia's stock continued its upward trend, driven by optimism about its role in artificial intelligence, despite a broader market sell-off. UnitedHealth Group saw its shares drop after reporting higher medical costs, which raised concerns about profitability in the health insurance sector. Additionally, the article touches on the broader market dynamics, including a tech-heavy Nasdaq's performance, and other notable stock movements like those of Tesla, which faced challenges with its Cybertruck production, and Boeing, which encountered issues with its 737 Max aircraft. The piece also briefly mentions the impact of economic indicators and Federal Reserve actions on the market.
