## @GlobalMktObserv (Global Markets Investor) · 09-22 08:15 · ♥36 ↻5 💬9 🚨 The tech rally is starting to lose steam as oil prices turn higher again:
The AI-fueled rally in tech stocks is losing momentum as Brent crude climbs back above $102 a barrel, reviving concerns about higher inflation and tighter financial conditions.
The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index surged more than +4% on Monday while Meta jumped +11% after strong early uptake of its Muse AI agent renewed enthusiasm for the chips needed to power AI agents.
However, the rally quickly faded in Asia, with South Korea’s KOSPI trimming gains of as much as +2.3% to finish barely positive, while Taiwan’s Taiex also pared its advance.
The reversal came as oil resumed its role as a key market driver, with investors tracking diplomatic efforts to end the US-Iran war and the risk of renewed energy disruptions.
European bonds and Treasuries also came under pressure as higher energy prices revived inflation concerns, while the dollar was little changed.
At the same time, markets are positioning ahead of the Trump-Xi summit later this week, with officials from the US and China continuing talks in New York.
Market sentiment remains fragile. https://x.com/GlobalMktObserv/status/2102310771820519855
