• Stocks Tumble as Year’s Winning AI Bets Take a Hit

  Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.Wall Street traders took profits on the year’s biggest artificial intelligence winners, dragging global gauges back from the brink of record highs. Longer-dated bond yields climbed.A disappointing sales outlook from Broadcom Inc. sent the chipmaker tumbling 11% and weighed on rivals, further fueling investor anxiety over AI wagers initially prompted by Oracle Corp. The AI bellwether’s stock drop started Thursday following a forecast for rising capital outlays and a longer timeline to a revenue payoff. The slump deepened Friday on a report of delays to some of Oracle’s data center projects. Shares of companies tied to the AI power infrastructure also slid.The Nasdaq 100 dropped 1.9% while The S&P 500 fell 1.1% after the index had notched a record close in the previous session. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and Russell 2000 pulled back from all-time highs. The selloff put a damper on the ebullience sparked by the Federal Reserve’s third-straight interest rate cut this week. Investors also had to contend with mixed messages from Fed officials after they left their outlook for a single cut in 2026 intact.

It just usually doesn’t involve the US president.Donald Trump’s declaration that he will involve himself in the proposed sale of Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. has thrust an already tumultuous battle between Netflix Inc. and Paramount Skydance Corp. over some of the crown jewels of Tinseltown into uncharted waters.The decision to inject himself is particularly extraordinary given Trump’s own conflicts and interests, according to legal experts.Trump has already signaled one personal precondition for a sale: new ownership of longtime bogeyman CNN, in a bid to exert more favorable coverage from the cable network. But the connections don’t stop there for a president who considers himself the dealmaker-in-chief. Trump’s son-in-law and former aide, Jared Kushner, has helped arrange financing for Paramount chief David Ellison, whose father, Larry Ellison, is a longtime donor and supporter.The president has received entreaties from both sides. Netflix co-Chief Executive Officer Ted Sarandos has mounted a charm offensive of his own, meeting repeatedly with Trump and even chatting about how the first family were “big fans” of the streamer.
