SOXX Extends Losing Streak in Overnight Trading as Kospi Rebounds

Yahoo Finance ·

The iShares Semiconductor ETF dropped 0.8% late Thursday, marking its eighth consecutive losing session amid ongoing doubts regarding artificial intelligence investments and rising financing pressures. While Nvidia defied the trend with a 0.2% gain, Advanced Micro Devices and Intel both retreated by under 1%. In South Korea, the Kospi bounced back 3.4% on Friday following a steep 7.6% crash the day before. CNBC commentator Jim Cramer labeled SK Hynix as the epicenter of fear, noting that many market participants remain underwater despite the Kospi still sitting on gains exceeding 50%. Over the past fortnight, prominent semiconductor names including Intel and CoreWeave have plummeted over 20%. Market analysts point to fears that technology giants have expanded too rapidly, while sticky U.S. inflation bolsters expectations of additional interest rate increases that heighten corporate borrowing expenses.

Doubts over the sustainability of AI investments and rate hike concerns driven by U.S. inflation fears are exerting downward pressure on semiconductors and growth stocks overall. Jim Cramer pointed to SK Hynix as the epicenter of fear, urging caution amid expanding volatility.

DYAX 전담 분석

Semiconductor and AI-related stocks are undergoing a sharp correction due to concerns over the profitability of AI infrastructure investments and rising borrowing costs. While SOXX fell an additional 0.8% and INTC showed weakness, NVDA posted a modest gain, indicating stock-specific divergence.

The key variables ahead are whether AI demand will translate into visible earnings and the path of U.S. interest rates. In the event of further declines, the inflow of bargain hunting and the defense of support lines by major semiconductor indices must be closely monitored.
