Nasdaq, S&P 500 battered over AI fears as Nvidia wipes out record $589 billion in market value

Tech stocks plummeted on Monday due to growing concerns about US artificial intelligence (AI) dominance and the rise of Chinese AI startup DeepSeek. The Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) sank over 3%, while the S&P 500 (^GSPC) dropped nearly 1.5%. AI bellwether Nvidia (NVDA) plunged nearly 17%, wiping out a record $589 billion in market value. DeepSeek's AI model reportedly uses cheaper chips and less data than leading models, leading investors to question the future of AI demand-driven growth. Other tech giants, including Apple (AAPL), Meta (META), and Microsoft (MSFT), also faced losses. The Federal Reserve's upcoming policy meeting and President Trump's trade war concerns added pressure to the market. However, defensive stocks gained, including Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) and Procter & Gamble (PG), helping to soften the blow to the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) which ended the day with a modest gain.
