Stocks ended mixed Thursday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average finishing up 0.20%, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq slipped. The sell-off in megacap tech stocks continued, dragging down the broader market.

The Commerce Department reported a 2.8% increase in GDP last quarter, but expectations for Fed rate cuts remain. Bristol Myers Squibb and Colgate-Palmolive are expected to release quarterly updates.

Nvidia shares extended their slump, and American Airlines slashed its profit forecast. Global stocks and oil prices slumped.

The yen rose against the dollar. Futures contracts suggest a decline in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq.

The VIX index, a measure of market volatility, rose significantly. Ford, IBM, and Southwest Airlines were among the stocks on the move.

Overseas markets, including Europe's Stoxx 600 and Japan's Nikkei 225, also experienced declines. Earnings reports from tech giants and key economic data will be watched closely.
