Most Equities Hold Ground Despite Nasdaq Slump

Yahoo Finance ·

The Nasdaq Composite retreated by roughly 1% on Monday, extending recent struggles, yet broader market indexes revealed a different picture where advancing issues outnumbered decliners by more than two to one across the S&P 500 ecosystem. Major tech turbulence returned as Oracle slumped nearly 9% following a filing to secure $20 billion through stock and debt instruments to fund artificial intelligence infrastructure. Meanwhile, Marvell Technology agreed to acquire Lumentum in an all-stock transaction valued at $115 billion, triggering a 13% drop in Marvell shares and a nearly 19% slide for Lumentum. These developments reignited skepticism regarding returns on massive artificial intelligence expenditures. Consequently, the Nasdaq-100 lost 1.4% and the technology sector gave up almost 3%, while energy tumbled roughly 4% amid a sharp drop in oil prices. Nevertheless, the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.4%, and eight out of eleven S&P 500 sectors finished in positive territory, demonstrating resilience outside the technology arena.

AI 시장 분석

In Monday's stock market, the Nasdaq Composite fell about 1%, while the majority of stocks in the S&P 500 posted gains. AI-related tech stocks took a heavy hit in the wake of Oracle's $20 billion financing announcement and Marvell Technology's massive M&A. Additionally, crude oil prices plummeted by over 7% on diplomatic signals between the U.S. and Iran, dragging down the energy sector. Investors must thoroughly reassess excessive AI investment costs and profitability concerns regarding individual tech stocks.

DYAX 전담 분석

Oracle's push to issue $20 billion in equity and debt to build AI infrastructure sent its shares plunging about 9%, while large deals such as Marvell's acquisition of Lumentum revived concerns over AI investment returns. Tech-focused sell-offs led the Nasdaq's decline, and the plunge in crude oil prices drove a 4% drop in the energy sector.

If short-term AI infrastructure investment costs weigh on corporate profitability, further adjustments in tech stocks cannot be ruled out, but the robust trend in non-tech sectors suggests the possibility of a soft landing for the broader market. Moving forward, the actual revenue conversion rate relative to AI investments by big tech companies and crude oil supply-demand trends must be monitored as core indicators.
