Yahoo Finance ·

Artificial intelligence hardware stocks suffered a severe sell-off on Monday, September 14, 2026, following calls from major industry figures to moderate the pace of advancement. Nvidia Corp. declined by 2.49 percent, Broadcom Inc. dropped 3.76 percent, and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. fell 5.74 percent. Memory chip makers bore the brunt of the downturn, with Micron Technology Inc. plunging 5.82 percent and SanDisk Corp. tumbling 6.14 percent. The market correction came after Anthropic chief Dario Amodei introduced a proposal on Saturday to temper model capability scaling without sacrificing commercial benefits or national leadership. OpenAI's Sam Altman and xAI's Elon Musk expressed their agreement online, while Altman also dismissed the possibility of an initial public offering for OpenAI within the year, citing various catastrophic risks.

DYAX 전담 분석

Due to calls from major AI leaders to moderate development speed, AI hardware and memory semiconductor stocks experienced sharp declines, including NVDA down 2.49%, AMD down 5.74%, and MU down 5.82%. This directly translates to a slowdown in future AI infrastructure investment demand, acting as negative pressure on the revenue growth of related companies.

As a future scenario, if reduced AI investments lead to poor earnings, additional declines may occur, while deregulation or resumed investments could trigger a rebound. Key indicators to watch are major big tech companies' capital expenditure (CapEx) guidelines and memory semiconductor price trends.
