- Tech stocks extended a selloff into a second day, per a WSJ live-updates headline flagging the continuation of the rout.
- Doubts over AI spending drove the decline, with the New York Times citing intensifying skepticism and CNN noting that enthusiasm for AI stocks is wobbling.
- Bloomberg reported the AI rout pushed investors into bonds, framing the move as a rotation out of equities into fixed income.
- All four outlets framed the selloff as global in scope, with CNN explicitly calling it a 'global tech selloff' deepening across markets.
Why it matters: Investors rotating from AI-exposed equities into bonds — as Bloomberg's headline notes — signals a portfolio-wide risk-off shift rather than a sector-specific shakeout, putting pressure on the AI capex narrative that has anchored equity multiples for the past two years.
