Semiconductors Rally on Supply Signals as AI Fears Subside

Chip stocks jumped as investors shifted focus from AI spending fears to tight supply and resilient data-center demand. Intel warned it can meet only about half of CPU demand and memory shortages could worsen next year, while reports of SK Hynix exploring U.S. memory production boosted bullish sentiment. The iShares Semiconductor ETF SOXX rose about 3%, with Intel, AMD, Nvidia and memory names like Micron and SanDisk posting solid gains, helped by a broader tech rally and easing yields.

Nvidia Slump Highlights Fears Over AI Spending Ties to Suppliers

Nvidia slid about 5% after reports it was discussing roughly $250 billion in financing guarantees for an OpenAI data center and up to $350 billion for OpenAI chip purchases, fueling concerns that AI infrastructure spend depends on suppliers backing customers’ expansion. The selloff spread to other chip names and AI-linked stocks in Asia and Europe (ASML, CXMT among others), as investors await earnings from Apple, Meta, Microsoft and Amazon for signals on future AI capex, with hyperscaler spending and Nvidia’s financing exposure and progress by Chinese chipmakers likely to shape near‑term moves.

Nvidia slides as circular-financing fears ripple through chips

NVIDIA shares fell nearly 5% and dragged the chip sector lower after reports Nvidia could back a roughly $250 billion OpenAI computing-funding plan, renewing concerns about circular financing where suppliers are large investors in customers. Nvidia also disclosed a strategic SK Group collaboration on a $500 billion+ AI factories and memory initiative, amid worries about AI demand and valuations as inflationary/regulatory factors and China’s chipmaking progress weigh on the sector. Apple reportedly surpassed Nvidia as the world’s most valuable company, while peers like AMD, Micron, and SK Hynix declined ahead of earnings from Microsoft, Amazon, and Meta.

Burry Expands Bearish Bets in Semiconductor Rally

Hedge fund investor Michael Burry increased his bearish bets on major chip stocks, selling short additional Micron shares at $933.86 and adding to his Nvidia short at $210.28, while expanding a large short position in the iShares Semiconductor ETF. He argues the semiconductor rally has run too far as AI spending and valuations come into question. His bets against Tesla and Palantir remain open, with Tesla positions shrinking as the stock falls, and he also boosted long exposure to Flutter and DraftKings.

AI spending fears weigh on Nasdaq before mega-cap earnings

The Nasdaq slipped on Friday as investors dumped chip stocks amid worries that AI-related spending will squeeze profits ahead of next week’s megacap results (Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, Apple) and Alphabet’s big capital-spending plans. The S&P 500 was essentially flat and the Dow rose modestly, highlighting a cautious mood as traders weigh AI-cycle costs against potential gains. Intel beat on profits and raised spending guidance, but its shares fell in sympathy with the sector, while oil prices fell about 3% and some defensive areas like real estate and materials boosted parts of the market. For the week, the Nasdaq underperformed while the Dow and S&P posted small losses or gains depending on index.

Micron’s Blowout Quarter Signals Edge AI Upside for Major Chip Makers

Micron posted a blowout quarter with revenue up about 346% and EPS up more than 10x, alongside gross margins near 85% and operating margins around 80%. The memory shortage is expected to persist through 2028, lifting memory prices and benefiting peers across the chip field. Management highlighted edge AI as a major growth driver, projecting increased memory demand in PCs and smartphones as AI expands beyond data centers. If edge AI accelerates, Intel, AMD, Arm, and Qualcomm could see a boost as AI-enabled devices become more prevalent in smartphones, PCs, and other gear.
