US Stock Market Turmoil: AI Bubble Concerns Weigh on Nvidia and Wall Street

The US stock market experienced significant fluctuations as concerns over high prices for Nvidia, Bitcoin, and other Wall Street stars led to widespread sell-offs in Asia and Europe. A potential AI bubble, overinvestment fears, and geopolitical risks continue to impact investor sentiment and market stability.

The US stock market faced turbulent trading on Tuesday, with prices swinging as concerns about high valuations affected top companies like Nvidia and Bitcoin, sparking sell-offs in Asia and Europe. Despite initial losses, the S&P 500 recovered much of its 1.5% morning drop, ending late-day trading slightly down by 0.2%.

Nvidia remained a significant influence on the market, experiencing a 1.4% decline. Earlier in the day, the stock fell as much as 3.7%, contributing to its monthly decline exceeding 10%, which Wall Street dubs a 'correction.' Nvidia's performance heavily impacts the S&P 500 due to its substantial size and influence, driven by intense demand for AI chips.

Investor concerns about an AI bubble, along with overinvestment risks, continue to shape market conditions. Global fund managers view potential AI-related disruptions as the top market risk, even outpacing concerns about bond market stability and inflation. Additionally, recent economic data and uncertainties around Federal Reserve rate decisions add to market volatility.
