AI slowdown calls pressure $NVDA in cash trading as broad tech sells off
Calls for an AI slowdown are weighing on $NVDA and tech stocks in cash trading. Funds have not rotated into software shares as some had hoped.
- $NVDA dropped 4.29% to a low of $208.93 after leaders urged slower model development
- The stock rebounded to $210.64 but remains down 3.50% with no confirmed order cuts
- Reports show broad weakness in AI and chip stocks rather than a shift to software
- Investor worry over future demand drives this move instead of a verified business change
CEO comments are shaping risk views while cash data shows wide tech weakness. Current trades do not support the idea of sector rotation.
