The post AI trade loses steam as Samsung earnings fail to lift chip stocks amid open source AI shift appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
The AI trade, which incorporates semiconductors and memory stocks, is showing signs of fatigue as investors reassess whether the extraordinary spending boom on chips and data centers can be sustained. Semiconductor and memory stocks such as Micron Technology (MU) and Sandisk (SNDK) came under heavy pressure on Tuesday, after Samsung Electronics (005930) reported record second-quarter earnings but missed revenue estimates. Shares still fell nearly 7%, extending a broader selloff across AI-linked chipmakers. Concerns are growing that hyperscalers could slow AI infrastructure spending.

To begin with, the benchmark S&P 500 market index was trading at 1,252.31 on July 7, 2008 – 18 years ago – and, by press time, it is at 7,489.53. Given the change, the popular cross-section of the U.S. equity markets rose 498.06%. S&P 500 benchmark stock market index chart.
