By Caroline Valetkevitch NEW YORK, July 20 (Reuters) - Chipmakers are in focus on Wall Street, with their shares turning mercurial this month and investors banking on a few dozen newly valuable

Contracts to supply computing power for artificial-intelligence calculations have become such a fixture of the craze that whole industries have begun reorganizing around them. AI suppliers say these arrangements give them unprecedented visibility into their future revenue, allowing them to wow investors with promises of bumper sales and profits ahead. Memory suppliers and their customers have sought out longer-dated deals in recent months.

Chip and AI-linked stocks have whacked in recent weeks after a sharp run-up, while inflation concerns, the U.S.-Iran conflict, and stretched valuations have also weighed on sentiment.

Micron just posted one of the most explosive quarters in semiconductor history, yet the stock has cratered nearly 14% in a single week as three distinct threats converge on the memory giant. Whether this selloff is a gift or a warning depends entirely on which scenario plays out next.

(Bloomberg) -- After last week’s wipeout in chips and the broader selloff in technology stocks, pressure is building for the biggest spenders on artificial intelligence to justify their expenditures to beleaguered traders with increasingly itchy fingers hovering over their sell buttons.Most Read from BloombergUS Strikes Iran to ‘Punish’ It for Attack That Killed 2 TroopsFCC Near Rulings Against Disney Over ‘The View,’ TV LicensesThousands of Trucks Haul Iraq’s Oil Through Syria in Sign of Hormuz

A week of tech stock crashes!

Wall Street is looking to earnings season for evidence that the AI trade is tact.

The surprise release of a breakthrough artificial-intelligence model from China intensified a selloff in chip stocks on Friday, fueling concerns about competition in AI and massive corporate spending that underpins its build-out. Tech stocks led a Friday selloff that by late afternoon had broadened to envelop 10 of 11 sectors in the S&P 500 index. The latest trigger was China’s Moonshot AI, which unveiled its Kimi K3 large language model on Friday.

The tech selloff has spread beyond semiconductor stocks to many of this year’s biggest listings, even as some Wall Street analysts argue the pullback is a healthy reset rather than the end of the AI boom.

Chip stocks trimmed losses on Friday as investors bought the dip despite AI jitters.

Chip makers are selling off premarket as investors pare back investments in artificial intelligence-linked stocks. Intel, Micron and Sandisk are on track to notch double-digit losses for the week, while large tech names in Asia have cratered.

Micron Technology has become a key artificial-intelligence trade bellwether. Now analysts are trying to game out what peak earnings will look like for Micron if the AI cycle continues. A Trivariate Research analyst team, led by Adam Parker, on Thursday called Micron “the most important stock in the market,” writing that shares of the memory-chip maker have become a “proxy for the AI cycle and risk-taking.”

International Business Machines (IBM) has spent three years quietly convincing Wall Street it belonged in the artificial intelligence trade. However, on July 14, the market decided otherwise in a single session. IBM shares closed at $217.07, falling 25.21% that day alone. This came ...

Chip stock weakness was taking its toll on Thursday, and tech stocks were losing steam. The Nasdaq was down 0.6%, while the S&P fell 0.1%. The Dow looked for direction near the flatline. Memory chip stocks, like Western Digital and Micron, were some of the worst performers premarket though the chip space struggled broadly.

China's CXMT is heading for a massive IPO, and the news is sending shockwaves through the memory chip sector, hitting stocks that had already surged hundreds of percent this year. Whether this selloff is a buying opportunity or the beginning of a bubble burst has investors sharply divided.

Micron Technology on Thursday signed long-term agreements with automotive suppliers, including chip designer ‌Qualcomm and audio products maker Harman, to secure ‌memory and storage components that powers AI-enabled vehicles. The agreements come as ​the industry races to expand manufacturing capacity to meet the booming demand for memory chips due to the rapid adoption of AI tools. These chips are used in data ‌centers, consumer electronics ⁠and vehicles, where they support AI-enabled features such as ADAS and digital cockpits.

Investing.com -- U.S. stock index futures were mixed on Thursday as investors weighed lingering Middle East tensions, and focused on corporate earnings and further signs that U.S. inflationary pressures are easing.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's U.S.-listed ADRs are selling off this morning, even after it delivered another big earnings beat. Some analysts are pointing to the chip giant's big capex plans as a possible catalyst.

U.S. stocks remain deep in the throes of a major rotation heading into the teeth of the second-quarter earnings season, and the traditional August lull that follows, as investors take money from highflying tech sector and spread that cash across a host of old-economy bets. What’s happening alongside that “great rotation,” however, is also interesting, and likely keeping stocks afloat amid the broader tech declines.

Exposure to the artificial-intelligence boom has become virtually impossible for investors to avoid. The theme hasn’t just cornered the stock market. It has systematically swallowed up corporate credit and venture capital, too.
