The chip sector saw notable rebounds after plunging on Friday amid worries about overvaluation due to AI euphoria. Micron Technology rose 9.9% after sliding 13.3% on Friday, resuming a run where its stock has more than tripled so far in 2026. Marvell Technology climbed 9.6% in its first trading day after being added to the S&P 500 index.
The sell-off was largely driven by declines in major tech stocks, with Nvidia falling 6.2%, Broadcom dropping 7.9%, and Micron Technology sliding 13.3% on Friday alone. The chip sector lost about $1.3 trillion in market value as the PHLX chip index slumped by 10.3%. Analysts attributed the downturn to growing fatigue with AI-driven stock rallies and concerns over rising interest rates following a strong U.S. jobs report.
The SOX chipmaker index plunged by 10%, representing its biggest fall since the pandemic in 2020. $2 trillion was wiped off the value of U.S. equities on Friday, with over half of that loss attributed to chip stocks. In other market movements, oil prices rose following fighting between Israel and Iran but later pared their biggest gains as tensions appeared to ease.
The price for a barrel of Brent crude oil briefly topped $98 overnight before settling at $94.25 per barrel, up 1.2% from Friday, according to Reuters. The expectations of tighter monetary policy and underwhelming results from Broadcom last week raised concerns that the sector was growing too fast too quickly.
'We do not expect investors to lose confidence in the AI outlook,' said Mark Haefele, chief investment officer at UBS Global Wealth Management. 'Although tech stocks have come under pressure in recent days amid concerns about whether expectations can be met, business fundamentals remain strong.'
By 06:07 a.m. ET, S&P 500 e-minis were up 25.75 points, or 0.35%. Nasdaq 100 e-minis added 200.75 points, or 0.69%, and Dow e-minis dipped 47 points, or 0.09%. Much stronger-than-expected jobs data for May also contributed to Friday's rout, as traders priced in interest rate increases this year.
The sell-off was particularly severe in South Korea’s Kospi index, which dropped 8.3%, heavily affecting tech stocks like Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. This global impact underscores the interconnected nature of markets during periods of high volatility.
