🚨 #BREAKING Semiconductor stocks erase over $1 trillion in market value

📉

The benchmark Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell 3.1% on Wednesday, putting the sector on track to lose over $1 trillion in market value. This drop marks the longest losing streak for the index since May 2025, driven by mounting pressure across hardware makers. 🔥

Back in late June, the index had surged over 100% year-to-date, fueled by an intense rally in chip manufacturing and data center hardware.

During the recent market sessions, AMD shed $110 billion and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. lost $119 billion. ⚠️

The iShares MSCI South Korea ETF fell 14.1%, marking its worst single-day performance since March 2020.
