About this episode

US equities experienced a decline on Tuesday, primarily driven by momentum trade names and concerns surrounding AI investments.

US equities were lower in Tuesday trading, though off their worst levels. The momentum trade names led the market to the downside, with notable weakness in memory, semis, and AI energy infrastructure. Today's action extended the recent momentum selloff which has been attributed to factors including the growing fears around the return on investment for AI capex, Chinese and open source model competition, and frontier model commoditization.
