I see this selloff as more than just a reaction to the Fed holding rates steady. What changed was the market's expectation for future policy. A more hawkish tone, combined with higher Treasury yields, puts pressure on high-valuation growth stocks that have rallied strongly this year.

At the same time, geopolitical risks are making investors even more cautious. Rising oil prices and tensions in the Middle East could keep inflation elevated, making it harder for the Fed to begin cutting rates. That uncertainty is increasing market volatility across multiple asset classes.

For now, I'm not changing my long-term strategy. If fundamentally strong AI and technology companies pull back because of macro concerns rather than weaker earnings, I'll continue to accumulate them gradually. Volatility creates opportunities, but staying disciplined with position sizing is more important than trying to time the market.

    Thanks for sharing, may I know that in your view, which indicators would help to distinguish between a macro-driven pullback and a deterioration in the fundamentals of AI companies?

      For me, I focus on three things: earnings growth, AI-related revenue and customer demand. If those remain strong while the stock falls because of higher rates or macro concerns, I see it as a macro-driven pullback rather than a deterioration in fundamentals.
