US Stock Market Sees Sharp Selloff in AI and Chip Stocks Amid Infrastructure Concerns
On November 5, major US stock indexes including the Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq experienced significant declines amid a sharp selloff in AI-related and semiconductor stocks. Companies like Nvidia, AMD, Micron, Tesla, and Palantir saw steep share price drops due to concerns over AI infrastructure spending, potential regulatory hurdles, and halted construction projects such as Micron's Taiwan plant. Despite the selloff wiping out trillions in market value, some analysts and firms like Jefferies described the downturn as reactionary, with chip stocks showing signs of recovery in early trading.
