Unexpected results from AI emerging companies have rewind these inventory.
One of the biggest market propulsion of technology stock over the past few years was a rapid progress in the artificial intelligence (AI) field. These next -generation algorithms promised to make a big leap from their predecessors, rationalize the process and improve productivity. Many major high -tech companies have spent a lot of money to jump into technology.
However, a Chinese emerging company called DeepSeek may have just covered the conventional idea of how to train AI models. As a result, a large amount of AI shares fell on Monday. AI -centered chip maker NVIDIA (NVDA 8.93 %) Semiconductor specialist BROADCOM, 17.3 % crashed (AVGO 2.59 %) Cloud and software giant Microsoft collapsed 16.4 % (MSFT 2.91 %) 3.8 % slump, cloud computing and search Titan Alphabet (Googl 1.82 %) (Goog 1.70 %) As of 11:43 am, it fell 2.8 %.

One year ago, China’s emerging companies, DeepSeek, introduced the latest AI model called R1, and their abilities were surprised by many people in the high -tech world. The performance of the system similar to Openai’s Chatgpt has quickly increased its rank and became one of the top 10 in the world. It was more noticeable that these results were achieved at a much lower cost of older generations, according to the company.
DeepSeek has achieved these remarkable results by taking a new approach to the training of the AI model. The process, known as reinforced learning or reward -led optimization, seems to be more likely to improve the strategy to solve the problem or try different approaches and achieve the desired results.
So far, one of the biggest issues of AI is not knowing how algorithm has reached a specific conclusion, and is a “black box”. Deepseek’s R1 model shows its work, eliminating uncertainty.
Mark andrisen, a high -tech lover famous for venture capitalists, said, “Deepseek R1 is one of the most surprisingly impressive break -throughs I’ve ever seen, X (previous Twitter. When I posted it, I burned the world this weekend.
To clarify, experts say that DeepSeek’s R1 is continuing the performance ability of the model generated by Openai and Alphabet, but with a few inferior chips threatened to overturn the existing paradigm. It is the fact that I was able to do it.
Potential meaning
AI inventory and wider high -techescector have entered the news and are upset by the potential impact on the industry.
NVIDIA is a gold standard and major provider of the graphic processing unit (GPU) used for training and execution of the AI system. According to Semiconductor Analyst Firm TechnSights, the company will manage 98 % of the data center GPU market. If you can train AI models with low cost chips, NVIDIA has a lot of losing. Broadcom supplies many networking products that run side by side with data centers. The company’s Ethernet switching and application -specific integrated circuits (ASIC) help promote data movements. If the demand for these high -end chips collapses, the sale of auxiliary products such as the Broadcom weapon may also suffer. Microsoft has supported the start of the AI Revolution by investing $ 13 billion in Openai and integrating AI functions into various products and services. The company recently announced a plan to spend $ 80 billion in data center next year. If you have a more expensive approach, customers may not be able to fork in the top dollar for Microsoft’s solution. ALPHABET was another company that spent a lot of money to develop next -generation AI models for Google Cloud customers. If there is a costly alternative, such as Microsoft, alphabet results may suffer.
Nevertheless, veteran Wedbush Tech analyst Dan Ives calls today’s sale as “Golden Purchase opportunity”, and is noticed that many emerging companies have not yet been verified. He continued, suggesting that “NO US GLOBAL 2000 (company) is trying to launch AI infrastructure using Deepseek, a Chinese emerging company”, and must rise to the “competition threat” level. I mentioned it.
At least when measured using the most commonly adopted metrics, it is a high reputation to further increase the decrease in these strains. When we headed for today’s transactions, Broadcom, NVIDIA, and Microsoft each sold 200 times, 56 times, and 37 times. The alphabet was out of the price, and was sold for discounts with 27 times earnings.
The ratio of prices and revenue (P/E) is one of the most widely used evaluation metrics, but it is important to note that high growth stocks tend to be insufficient. After today’s decline, NVIDIA, Microsoft, Broadcom, and Alphabet are sold 41 times, 33 times, 33 times, and 22 times.
Finally, the development of generated AI is still in the early days. Today, if a more measured approach is required, it is a typical example of the knee larva reaction from some investors. Each of our shares has an impressive track record dating back to decades, and may be seducing the crowd and succumbing to the market, but all sharp investors are all. Knowing to come before the evidence comes, it can be a costly conclusion.
