- Nasdaq posted back-to-back losses as investor concerns over AI spending and rising oil prices fueled a tech-led market selloff
- Dow tumbled more than 600 points, reflecting widespread sector declines tied to surging oil prices and risk-off investor sentiment
- Oil prices surged, contributing to market volatility and prompting a shift in capital from equities to safer assets like Treasurys
- Samsara broke out from the broader downturn, outperforming peers amid the market-wide sell-off
Why it matters: Tech stocks face renewed pressure as capital rotates toward defensive assets, with the Nasdaq's two-day decline signaling weakening confidence in AI-driven growth. Samsara’s breakout suggests selective resilience, but rising oil prices threaten margin outlooks across sectors, altering near-term investment flows.
