Shares of semiconductor company Semtech (NASDAQ:SMTC) fell 3.1% in the morning session after the major indices continued to pull back, with technology stocks accounting for most of the market's largest decliners. A key reason for this trend is that much of the recent market gains were concentrated in the "AI trade," which includes these large technology and semiconductor companies. So this could also mean that some investors are locking in some gains ahead of more definitive feedback from the Fed.

Shares of online learning platform Udemy (NASDAQ:UDMY) fell 3.5% in the afternoon session after the major indices continued to pull back, with technology stocks accounting for most of the market's largest decliners. A key reason for this trend is that much of the recent market gains were concentrated in the "AI trade," which includes these large technology and semiconductor companies. So this could also mean that some investors are locking in some gains ahead of more definitive feedback from the Fed.
Despite the downturn, some analysts viewed this as an opportunity to own some of the "Core AI winners." Dan Ives of Wedbush Securities commented, "In our view, the tech bull cycle will be well intact for at least another 2-3 years, given the trillions being spent on AI infrastructure/software/chips/power/apps looking ahead. This remains our tech playbook and investor roadmap."
Additionally, mixed earnings reports from retailers, such as Target, have added to the market's weakness. Investors are closely monitoring these reports for insights into the broader economic health and the potential impact of new tariffs on inflation.

Shares of online used car dealer Carvana (NYSE: CVNA)
fell 3.8% in the afternoon session after Hertz Global Holdings announced it will begin selling certified used cars on Amazon.com, a move that introduces a significant new competitor into the online vehicle market. The move allows shoppers to browse, finance, and purchase Hertz's pre-owned vehicles through the e-commerce giant's platform, Amazon Autos. This development is viewed as a direct challenge to Carvana's online sales model, raising concerns about increased competition in the digital used car market. Investors appear worried that the partnership between Hertz and Amazon could negatively impact Carvana's sales and market share. Furthermore, the new arrangement could lead to fewer of Hertz's used vehicles being sold through the Carvana platform, directly affecting its inventory and sales channels.
