Market recap: Tech sells off, AMD tanks 17%, and Texas Instruments buys Silicon Labs
Market recap: Tech sells off, AMD tanks 17%, and Texas Instruments buys Silicon Labs
Tech stocks pulled the market lower today, with the Nasdaq dropping 1.5%. Investors seem to be rotating out of the sector, and concerns about AI disruption are hitting software stocks.
AMD sank 17% despite beating earnings estimates. The market focused on guidance and competition concerns rather than the CEO's comments about strong demand.
Eli Lilly jumped 10% after a solid earnings report, widening the gap with competitor Novo Nordisk, which slid recently on a sales warning.
Other notable moves:
* Texas Instruments is buying Silicon Labs for $7.5 billion, causing SLAB to pop nearly 50%.
* Enphase Energy and Super Micro Computer both saw double-digit gains.
* Bitcoin dropped to around $72,100 before recovering slightly to $73,500.

Rough tape. Tech getting hit hard, AMD learned the hard way that beats aren’t enough. Rotation vibes all over, stay sharp.
