S&P 500 Semiconductors Index Falls 6.38% as Intel Plunges 28.58%
AI take
The breadth of the selloff matters more than the headline index move: nearly every constituent fell, and Intel's outsized drop alongside double-digit declines at Qualcomm, AMD and Marvell points to sector-wide repricing rather than a single-name event. That the index gave back its early-October spike and then failed to hold near 11,000 suggests momentum broke down well before Friday's close. Whether the selling broadens beyond semiconductors into the wider tech complex is the open question worth watching.
