AI Stocks Sell Off; TSMC Beats, Chip Sector Sinks

Taiwan Semiconductor earnings topped guidance despite AI rout; Netflix cuts workforce, GlobalFoundries lands $21B Japan investment.

AI & Semiconductors

Neutral
01TSM
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing ($TSM) reported third-quarter revenue above the high end of its guidance, with revenue rising 17.6% sequentially in New Taiwan dollar terms, driven by strong demand for leading-edge process technologies and a steep ramp in 2-nanometer production. Despite the earnings beat, TSMC stock fell as global chipmakers sank amid fresh U.S. inflation data that stoked fears of further Federal Reserve interest-rate increases. The sell-off extended from earlier sessions, with investors focused on energy-driven inflation pressures.
02NVDA
Nvidia ($NVDA) continued its decline as the AI sell-off deepened following Anthropic revenue figures, with Dow Jones futures rising but AI stocks remaining under pressure. Global semiconductor stocks fell sharply, extending the rout from the previous session after U.S. headline CPI came in at 3.6% year-on-year for September with a 0.6% monthly rise led by gasoline and broader energy costs.
03META
Meta Platforms ($META) gained attention for its AI advantage that OpenAI and Anthropic cannot replicate, with analysts highlighting the company's advertising machine as an underlooked aspect of its AI turnaround strategy. Separately, an unnamed trillion-dollar chipmaker was cited by Wall Street analysts as positioned to benefit from agentic AI, with the right combination of chips to meet agentic AI's processing needs.

Datadog ($DDOG) paired high growth momentum with strong technical and setup ratings, offering a defined breakout entry according to ChartMill analysis. The monitoring and analytics platform showed continued strength despite broader market volatility.

The new system applies real-time digital twins and AI agents to support building and industrial site operations across energy, safety, and maintenance.
03MSFT
Oracle, working through the Open Compute Project, formed a new security working group with Marvell Technology and Microsoft ($MSFT) to define open NIST FIPS 140-3 Level 3 integrated HSM specifications for cloud and hyperscale data centers.
