Global Markets Dip on AI Slowdown Calls and Rising Oil Prices Ahead of Central Bank Meetings
Global markets experienced subdued trading as technology stocks declined following calls from AI leaders to slow development amid safety concerns. Rising oil prices, driven by Middle East tensions and attacks on Saudi infrastructure, added to market caution. US stock futures fell ahead of expected Federal Reserve and Bank of Japan interest rate decisions. Asian and European shares edged lower, with semiconductor and AI-related stocks among the biggest decliners, while defensive sectors and energy stocks showed some resilience amid inflation worries.
