Asian Markets Mixed Amid Tech Sell-Off Despite Wall Street Gains
On Monday, Asian stock markets showed mixed performance as a sharp sell-off in semiconductor stocks offset the positive momentum from overnight gains on Wall Street. The decline was driven by concerns over whether the artificial intelligence (AI) rally can be sustained, which weighed heavily on regional technology leaders. Investors remained cautious amid uncertainty about AI-driven growth and its long-term viability, leading to a broad-based retreat in tech sectors across Asia. In contrast, U.S. index futures had risen overnight, offering some optimism for global markets ahead of the week's trading sessions.
