Weekly Vibe
After a blistering run, Big Tech’s momentum hit turbulence this week—but the AI narrative remains very much alive. The one-two punch: a massive infrastructure/cloud deal bolstered the story, while valuation caution, export-control risks and governance drama reminded investors the ride isn’t frictionless.

🌊 The Ripple Effect
Cloud/infrastructure megadeals (Amazon/OpenAI) reinforce how AI is transforming spending, not just goods.
But tech stocks’ worst week since spring (~$800 billion wiped) signals selectivity is rising.
With the Mag7 controlling roughly ~40%+ of the S&P’s value, any stumble sends ripples far beyond tech.
Export-control, capex and governance risks are creeping more prominently into the narrative.
🔮 What’s Next
Focus on hyperscaler earnings commentary, especially around GPU build-out timelines and utilization.
Monitor macro signals: jobless claims, ISM services, Fed commentary shaping Q4/2026 expectations.
Export-controls and supply chain updates (especially in China) remain critical—especially for hardware-heavy players like Nvidia.
Fund-flow data: Are investors rotating out of high-multiple AI plays toward steadier tech names?
🧩 Closing Insight
The rally’s alive—but more earned than effortless. Leadership rotated within Big Tech, and the AI infrastructure story got another exclamation point. But this week showed that Big Tech doesn’t get a free pass anymore—execution, regulation and governance all matter.
