WS #15024
The broader tech sector is trading lower as elevated bond yields and Fed rate expectations weigh on valuations, with Meta specifically softening after a Goldman Sachs report questioned the economics of high AI investment. However, the AI narrative remains robust on a product level: Anthropic launched a significantly cheaper and faster Sonnet 5.5 model, and OpenAI's President is attending a White House AI meeting, signaling continued institutional support. Nvidia's record $150 billion buyback underscores its cash generation dominance, even as the sector grapples with macro sensitivity.
