European AI-Related Stocks Follow Global Trend Downward -- Market Talk

Dow Jones12-16 18:41

1041 GMT - A return of global concern over the AI investment case sends European AI-related stocks down across the board. France's STMicroelectronics drops 2.05%, as falls for semiconductor companies ASML, BE Semiconductor and ASM drag the Netherlands' tech-dominated AEX index down 0.5%. The three companies fall 1.85%, 1.25% and 0.7%, respectively. The moves follow three days of falls in the tech-heavy Nasdaq, which closed 0.6% lower on Monday, as traders worry about an AI bubble and high capital expenditure. Asian trading also saw falls for tech stocks, including Hong Kong's Semiconductor Manufacturing International and the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company. (josephmichael.stonor@wsj.com)
