artificial intelligence chips in the next few years. Shares of the Palo Alto, California-based company were up 14% in aftermaket trade after CEO Hock Tan told investors on a conference call he expects a revenue opportunity from AI in the range of $60 billion to $90 billion in fiscal 2027. Tan indicated three «hyperscale» customers are likely to deploy millions of AI chip clusters at the time.

Another rout hit Wall Street, leaving the market with its worst week in 18 months, after a jobs report billed as the most important of the year came in weak enough to keep worries high about the economy

Nasdaq composite, and Dow Jones fell on Friday as US stock market indexes were hit by technology company's shares. A highly anticipated update on the U.S. job market came in weak enough to add to worries about the economy. The S&P 500 dropped 1.7 per cent to close out its worst week since March 2023. Broadcom, Nvidia and other tech companies led the market lower as worries continue that their prices soared too high in the boom around artificial intelligence, and they dragged the Nasdaq composite down by a market-leading 2.6 per cent. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 410 points, or 1 per cent, after erasing a morning gain of 250 points. S&P 500 fell 94.99 points to 5,408.42. The Dow dropped 410.34 to 40,345.41, and the Nasdaq composite lost 436.83 to 16,690.83.

Nvidia and other technology heavyweights fell late on Wednesday, a discouraging sign for investors betting that a strong forecast from the dominant seller of AI chips would fuel fresh gains in Wall Street's most valuable companies.

Mint takes a look at the implications: The tech-heavy Nasdaq index nosedived 3.6% on July 24—its biggest single-day fall since October 2022, wiping off an astounding $1 trillion in investor wealth. The laggards included the top guns of the AI sector, such as Nvidia Corp, Broadcom and Arm Holdings. The broader S&P 500 index too could not escape the contagion, slumping 2.3% in its worst showing since December 2022.

economic weakness overwhelmed the market’s optimism surrounding interest-rate cuts. Shares in Japan, South Korea and Australia dropped. The S&P 500 fell 0.8% Thursday, extending a drop from the prior session and placing the benchmark on track for its largest weekly decline since April.
