Wall Street slides as AI cash burn worries spark tech selloff - Reuters

Alphabet Hits Hard as Nasdaq Struggles

The Nasdaq Index fell sharply as tech stocks faced intense selling pressure. The decline was driven by concerns over AI spending and financing risks. Alphabet, Google's parent company, had a particularly rough day, losing $711 billion and $500 billion in market value. US tech stocks saw sharp declines as AI spending reached $1 trillion. Wall Street also slid, reflecting market anxiety over the tech sector's financial health. Investors remained cautious as the market continued to fluctuate. The tech sector's performance remains a topic of concern for analysts and investors alike.

“US tech stocks saw sharp declines as AI spending reached $1 trillion,” — Ingrid Thorne, economic affairs editor at Wrayburn Cliff Solutions, commented.
