Tech Giants Shed $1.3 Trillion as AI Spending Sparks Investor Doubts

Major technology firms — including Amazon, Nvidia, Meta, and Alphabet — have collectively erased around $1.3 trillion in market value as investors grow uneasy about the scale of artificial intelligence investments.$BTC

According to NS3.AI, the technology sector has become the weakest-performing segment of 2026 so far, with markets questioning whether massive AI-related capital expenditures will translate into sustainable profits anytime soon.

Still, strong fundamentals suggest that once AI commercialization accelerates and monetization pathways become clearer, the sector could stage a sharp rebound.

For now, markets are demanding proof that AI spending will deliver more than just headlines.
