U.S. stocks ignored OpenAI’s announcement that it successfully completed a $110 billion funding round on Feb. 27.

Amazon invested $50 billion, Nvidia allocated $30 billion, and Japan’s SoftBank dedicated $30 billion in the latest funding round, the tech giant said in a news release. Other investors are expected to pour money into OpenAI.
