Extended read

The semiconductor sector experienced a sharp 2.1% decline as investors began rotating out of high-momentum AI trades. This move comes despite cooling inflation data that typically supports growth assets, suggesting a fundamental shift in how the market views AI infrastructure returns. The Nasdaq 100 is currently testing a major resistance level at 30,000. Concerns regarding supply chain constraints and the timing of AI-driven profit are outweighing the benefits of a potential Fed pause.
