TREE NEWS reports: Nasdaq 100 futures fell 1.8% and S&P 500 futures dropped 1% as AI investment sentiment cooled, with Meta raising capex plans despite beating revenue while Tesla cut spending. Lam Research shares fell more than 7% on weaker-than-expected guidance. Investors are questioning how long large data-center and compute investments will take to pay off, pushing the 10-year Treasury yield down 4 basis points to 5.08% and Brent crude above $112 a barrel.
AI return concerns drag Nasdaq futures, lift Treasuries
AI take
The divergence within big tech is the signal here: Meta raising capex while Tesla trims it shows AI spending is no longer treated as a uniform bet, and Lam's guidance miss suggests the equipment layer feels demand hesitation first. The move into Treasuries alongside oil above $112 points to a broader risk-off tilt rather than an AI-specific repricing. The open question is whether hyperscaler capex commitments hold through the next earnings round, or whether the payoff timeline scrutiny starts to bite at the largest spenders.
