On a recent episode of Barron’s Streetwise, host Jack Hough answered a listener named William who was nervous about how much money he had made in AI-adjacent names like Dell (NYSE:DELL) and HPE (NYSE:HPE). Hough’s answer had a number in it that should probably make everyone else nervous too. “You can look at the S&P 500 right now ... The S&P 500 Looks Pricey at 22x Earnings.

Microsoft is cutting about 2.1% of its workforce, or roughly 4,800 jobs, the latest in a wave of tech layoffs as the Windows maker spends heavily on AI infrastructure and uses the technology to improve efficiency across its business. Big Tech's historic AI outlays, set to top $700 billion this year, are piling pressure on companies to show returns from the technology and offset the rising cost of rolling it out across their businesses. Microsoft announced the cuts on Monday following a rough stretch, with its shares falling nearly 23% in the first six months of 2026, their worst first-half performance since 2022.
Morgan Stanley said the recent weakness in U.S. semiconductor stocks is a sign that the market gains are broadening, with investors likely to turn toward AI "hyperscalers" as well as consumer discretionary, transport and biotechnology shares. In a note dated Monday, the brokerage said hyperscalers — an industry term for tech companies that are spending big on data centers — could benefit from a rotation away from semiconductor stocks as the AI cycle shifts. Although the likes of Alphabet and Amazon have committed billions to scale up their AI infrastructure, skyrocketing the share prices of semiconductor companies, clear evidence that AI products can generate returns that justify the spending is yet to be seen.

The recent Big Tech correction is a healthy reset, not a market crash. Big Tech capex remains the S&P 500's core engine. With falling gas prices driving down headline CPI and an impending dovish Fed pivot, current market levels offer an ideal entry point for a new historic rally.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on Friday condemned senators who blocked changes to a world-first social media ban for children, saying tech giants would use the delay to destroy incriminating documents that could be used as evidence against them. The government this week introduced to Parliament amendments aimed at increasing powers of the eSafety Commissioner Julie Inman Grant, Australia’s online safety watchdog, to enforce the ban on Australian children younger than 16 from holding accounts on platforms including Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube that has been in place since December. The amendments would have given Inman Grant power to demand documents as well as information from platforms about their efforts to exclude young children.
AI data center startup Crusoe is in talks to raise about $3 billion in a funding round that may triple its valuation, Bloomberg News reported on Thursday, citing people familiar with the situation. The startup has contracts to supply AI computing power for the likes of Meta and Oracle, the report said, as technology giants spend billions of dollars on data centers to meet the massive computing requirements for GenAI. The startup, which builds and operates the type of large data centers that power AI systems, is still in active talks on the round, and a final valuation has not been set, according to the Bloomberg report.
Meta Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg told an internal town hall on Thursday that AI agent development over the last four months had not "accelerated in the way we expected," according to a recording heard by Reuters. Zuckerberg added that a company reorganization that included major job cuts was not as "clean" as it could have been and that executives had miscalculated on the timing of the changes. Conversations he was having "with our top people" when they started planning the restructuring in January and February "were that they were worried that we weren't going to move fast enough to adapt," Zuckerberg said.

Mark Zuckerberg just dodged a bullet. Zuckerberg, whom speculators give 32% odds of becoming the next trillionaire, came eerily close to steering Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) into one of the most legally and ethically fraught corners of consumer tech.
