Broadcom tumbles as revenue miss clouds AI boom bets

Broadcom shares sank about 12% in premarket trading on Thursday, a day after the company missed quarterly revenue ‌views and disappointed investors' lofty expectations of stronger momentum from the ‌AI boom. The chipmaker could lose more than $285 billion in market cap at the current price of $418.83, if ​losses hold. Broadcom vies with Nvidia, whose graphics processors remain the gold standard for AI workloads, underscoring intensifying competition at the top of the AI chip market.

Wall Street ends lower as Middle East tensions escalate

<body><p>STORY: Wall Street's main indexes tumbled on Wednesday, with the Dow losing about 1.2%, the S&P 500 shedding about three-quarters of a percent and the Nasdaq falling roughly nine-tenths of a percent.</p><p>Flaring tensions in the Middle East and rising crude prices stoked inflation jitters and convinced investors to take some profits.</p><p>Energy stocks, buoyed by oil prices, enjoyed the largest percentage gains, with Exxon Mobil&nbsp;and Chevron both closing higher.&nbsp;</p><p>Meanwhile, six of the Magnificent Seven group of megacap tech stocks ended lower, with Meta the only exception.</p><p>Liz Miller is founder and president of Summit Place Financial Advisors.</p><p>"I more and more just keep seeing this market as a ping pong. One day we've got the momentum leading tech stocks up and then that drives all the indices up. And the next day we've got sort of the second tier undervalued companies up and the index is down.

Private infra, real estate capital to play larger financing role in AI data center boom, Goldman says

Private infrastructure and real estate capital are expected to play a larger role in financing the ‌AI-driven data-center boom, as companies move beyond traditional forms ‌of funding, Goldman Sachs said in a note on Tuesday.

EU court backs Meta fight against gatekeeper label for Marketplace, but not for Messenger

Europe's second-highest court on Wednesday backed Meta Platforms' fight ‌against the labelling of its Marketplace ‌platform as a gatekeeper under EU rules but ​rejected its challenge against the same designation for its messaging app Messenger. "The decision does not satisfy the requirements in terms of ‌reasoning as regards ⁠Marketplace, in that it allows neither Meta to understand the reasons ⁠for its classification as a core platform service that is an online intermediation service ​nor the ​Courts of the ​European Union to ‌exercise their power of review," the General Court said. Meta took its grievance to the Luxembourg-based tribunal after the European Commission said both services were important gateways for businesses ‌to reach users under ​the Digital Markets Act ​because they met ​the quantitative criteria.

Only One Man Can Kill the AI Boom: Fed Chair Kevin Warsh

The artificial intelligence boom has survived just about everything investors have thrown at it.
