The Nasdaq fell 2.60% amid growing investor concern over how massive AI infrastructure spending will be funded, with Meta shares sliding around 7% in the session.
The sell-off centered on technology stocks tied to the AI buildout. Investors' concerns focused on the sustainability of the enormous capital expenditure that major AI developers are committing, and how those outlays will be financed. Meta was among the hardest hit, declining roughly 7% as sentiment toward heavy AI spenders deteriorated.
The decline reflects broader unease that the pace of AI investment may outstrip near-term returns, putting pressure on the market segment that has driven much of recent equity gains.
Detailed reporting on the session was restricted: access to news aggregation resources was denied, and no credentials were available for a broader news API search.

The claim as stated — a 2.60% Nasdaq decline on AI funding concerns alongside a 7% drop for Meta — is assessed as True.
