Aug 26 (Reuters) -The S&P 500 retreated from near-record highs onMonday, with AI heavyweight Nvidia dipping ahead of its quarterly report this week, while investors awaited inflation data for clues about the path of interest-rate cuts by the Federal Reserve.
Nvidia NVDA.O dropped 2.6% ahead of its report on Wednesday in what is set to be the U.S. stock market's most closely watched event of the week.
Some investors worried that anything short of a stellar forecast from Nvidia could shatter Wall Street's rally in AI-related companies, including Microsoft MSFT.O, Alphabet GOOGL.O and Meta Platforms META.O.
"Nvidia could disappoint. I think when you get to the point where the majority doesn't even suspect that there could be a piece of bad news, that's typically where you get it," warned Jake Dollarhide, chief executive of Longbow Asset Management in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
U.S.-listed shares of PDD Holdings PDD.O tumbled 29% after the Temu-owner missed market expectations for second-quarter revenue.

The Nasdaq declined 1.13% to 17,675.64 points, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average was down 0.04% at 41,160.67 points.
