S&P 500 dragged down by AI stocks as chip shares head for worst week since July: Live updates
Global technology shares are falling amid growing jitters over artificial intelligence stocks, dragging down major indexes like the S&P 500 and heading toward a losing week. Chip shares, neoclouds, and software companies are struggling heavily, while the Dow has faced volatile swings, including an evaporated gain that pushed it toward its third loss in four days. Despite the broad tech retreat, gains in banking shares provided some balance to keep the S&P 500 subdued rather than sharply lower, as markets steady following the recent wave of selling.

Tech Selloff Deepens as AI Stock Enthusiasm Wobbles
Global technology shares are falling amid growing jitters over artificial intelligence stocks, dragging down major indexes like the S&P 500 and heading toward a losing week. Chip shares, neoclouds, and software companies are struggling heavily, while the Dow has faced volatile swings, including an evaporated gain that pushed it toward its third loss in four days. Despite the broad tech retreat, gains in banking shares provided some balance to keep the S&P 500 subdued rather than sharply lower, as markets steady following the recent wave of selling.
Why it matters
Technology shares have experienced sharp volatility and declining enthusiasm for artificial intelligence initiatives, which has heavily impacted chipmakers and related software firms. Broader market indexes are reacting to this sectoral shift, creating a mixed trading environment where financial stocks offset some technology losses. The current market action reflects broader investor reassessment of high-flying technology valuations after a period of intense growth.
