Making sense of this week’s volatility... And Nvidia earnings on the clock 8/21/26

CNBC's "Fast Money"

Live from the Nasdaq market site in the heart of New York City's Times Square, this is Fast Money. Here's what's on tap tonight. Stocks ending a rough week on an up note, but still down notably since Monday. Can today's momentum carry into next week? No debate. And we're counting down to Nvidia earnings, the world's biggest company, set to report next Wednesday what the charts say is next for the stock and what one top analyst is expecting. Plus, Broadcom eyes a massive debt deal. Retailer Ross Stores surges after earnings.

And a big week for Bitcoin. The crypto hitting three-month highs and clocking its best week of the year. What's driving the gains and how much more momentum is left in that trade? I'm Mike Santoli in for Melissa Lee. Coming to you live from Studio B at the Nasdaq on the desk tonight. Karen Feinerman, Steve Brasso, and Carter Worth. Welcome to you all. We start with that volatile run on Wall Street. The S&P higher today. Still down more than a percent since Monday. Breaking a streak of three straight weeks of gains.

Other major indexes also in the red, with the Nasdaq leading the losses down over 2%. All the action coming as long-term interest rates trade near two-decade highs. Investors seemingly unimpressed by Treasury Secretary Scott Besson's plans to buy back billions of dollars in longer-term government debt. The 30-year yield fully recouping Wednesday's drop by today's close. So can today's stock momentum last into next week? Or will higher rates take another bite out of equities?
