Semiconductor stocks fell sharply this week, with major indexes dropping over 10% and wiping out $1.3 trillion in market value. The selloff was driven by fears about the sustainability of AI infrastructure spending, high valuations reminiscent of the dot-com bubble, and a hawkish Federal Reserve stance, rather than a drop in demand. Despite the decline, Wall Street analysts remain optimistic about a rebound, citing strong earnings growth forecasts and sold-out high-bandwidth memory through 2027. The sector’s recovery depends on upcoming earnings reports from key players like TSMC and Intel surpassing expectations.
