US Tech Stocks Drop on AI Spending and Fed Concerns

Nasdaq 100 futures fell nearly 3% on Tuesday as investors pulled back from megacap technology and semiconductor stocks amid rising debt-funded AI spending. Markets are also pricing in a more hawkish Federal Reserve outlook with expectations growing for a second interest rate hike by December.
