Chip rout deepens as AI race heats up with Moonshot's Kimi K3

Semiconductor stocks fell as investors adopted a risk-off stance, with MU, SNDK, and WDC among the losers and Nvidia, AMD, Broadcom, Intel, and Marvell also slipping; Applied Materials and Lam Research declined more than 4% as the sector’s value shrank by about $3.3 trillion since June 22. The move comes as AI infrastructure costs rise and hyperscalers’ capex remains a key driver, while Moonshot unveiled Kimi K3—the world’s largest publicly available AI model—at WAIC in Shanghai, highlighting China’s rising open AI push. Alphabet’s Gemini 3.5 Pro reportedly remains behind schedule, underscoring mixed momentum in the AI race even as spending persists.
