The Nasdaq 100 $QQQ is now down more than 2% today as the AI selloff picks up speed heading into the weekly close

The index is near 29,280, down about 5.2% this week from 30,883 last Friday

The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index is off about 2.6% today and roughly 10% on the week

The S&P 500 is down about 1%, while the Dow is only off about 0.4% and still up on the week as money rotates into banks and old economy names

$Coreweave(CRWV.US) is down about 11% and $Nebius(NBIS.US) about 10% as worries over CoreWeave's debt load keep spreading. Its 9.75% bonds due 2031 now yield above 15% per CNBC

$Palantir Tech(PLTR.US) is down about 7%, $AMD(AMD.US) and $Intel(INTC.US) about 4.5%, $Oracle(ORCL.US) and $Micron Tech(MU.US) about 4%, and $Meta Platforms(META.US) about 3.4%. $Apple(AAPL.US) is one of the few big tech names in the green

The VIX has jumped nearly 30% to above 21, and the 10 year Treasury yield is back near 5.11% after hotter than expected CPI and PPI prints this week

Per CNBC, 20 of the world's most valuable AI and chip stocks had already shed more than $1T in market value this week before today's drop

The market has stopped asking what AI can do and started asking who pays for it. With yields above 5% and the Fed leaning hawkish, the most debt heavy and highest multiple AI names are getting hit first while $Apple(AAPL.US), banks and the Dow hold up. That looks more like a repricing of AI funding risk than a broad growth scare, and the tell will be whether the neocloud credit stress spreads or stays contained
