AI fears trigger roughly $223B software-stock market-cap loss

AI-driven disruption fears spurred a broad software-stock selloff, with the iShares Tech-Software ETF (IGV) sliding about 4.8% and wiping roughly $223 billion in market value from its components in a single session. Big names like IBM, DDOG, and CRWD were hit, while analyst commentary pointed to Citrini Research’s AI productivity scenario and Anthropic’s Claude updates as factors fueling caution. Investors remain cautious and want clearer AI headlines before stepping back into software stocks, amid warnings the move could be overdone.

AI Disruption Saps Software Stocks as Forecasts Lag Behind

Artificial intelligence is reshaping the software industry, weighing on shares of former winners like Workday and Salesforce even as analysts have been slow to raise earnings forecasts. Goldman Sachs notes that software stocks tracked by IGV have fallen about 24% in three months, while two-year forward earnings estimates for the group have risen roughly 5%, highlighting a gap between price action and fundamentals. Valuations have fallen from around 35x to under 20x, prompting warnings that disruption could spill into other sectors. Despite the pullback, IGV carries a Strong Buy consensus with an average target of $128.86, implying about 59% upside.”,

Huang: AI will augment, not replace, software amid tech selloff

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang dismissed fears that AI will replace software, arguing AI will rely on software tools rather than reinventing them, even as software stocks drag tech shares lower. Speaking at a Cisco AI event tied to CES 2026, he described software as a tool for AI and pointed to ServiceNow, SAP, Cadence, and Synopsis as bright spots, even as the iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF falls about 4% and the sector remains in a bear market amid a broader market rotation. Stocks like Palantir, Applovin, Unity Software, and Hut 8 faced declines in Wednesday trading.

Anthropic's Claude Cowork rattles software stocks

Anthropic unveiled Claude Cowork, an AI assistant capable of reading files, organizing folders, and drafting documents, plus new industry-specific plugins. The launch sparked a selloff in software and data-analytics stocks as investors fear AI could disrupt the software-as-a-service model, though analysts say the move may be sentiment-driven and could normalize once AI benefits prove measurable.

Anthropic AI trigger sparks rout in global software stocks

The decline is attributed to massive AI spending by customers, which is straining budgets for other software services. UiPath's CEO chaos and consistent losses further exacerbated its stock collapse, now down 85% from its peak. Other major software companies also saw significant declines.

Tech Stocks Maintain Winning Streak, Presenting Buying Opportunities

Dow Jones futures were steady overnight, with the stock market rally continuing its winning streak. The software sector performed well, with stocks like Datadog, MongoDB, and Dynatrace clearing early entries. Adobe and ServiceNow also moved above official buy points. However, market breadth was lackluster, with energy stocks tumbling. Tesla rivals Rivian and Lucid reported after hours, with staffing firm Upwork among the big winners. Overall, the stock market rally remains strong, but a market pause or pullback may be on the horizon. Investors should focus on building their watchlists and staying in sync with market direction and leading stocks and sectors.

Market Rebounds as Tech Stocks Tumble and Carnival Cruise Line Surges

Dow Jones futures, along with S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq futures, rose slightly after hours. The stock market rally had a mixed session, with the Nasdaq composite rising slightly but paring intraday gains. Several software stocks, including HubSpot, MongoDB, Datadog, Snowflake, Palantir Technologies, Dynatrace, Confluent, Samsara, Monday.com, and Shopify, flashed buy signals. Micron Technology reported earnings that were slightly better than expected, but cited China curbs on its chips as a significant headwind. Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices showed resilience following reports of potential tighter chip export curbs to China. The market rally is in a Catch-22 situation, raising risks for new buys in the short run.
