Global technology stocks tumbled Monday as a selloff in mega-cap tech names spread to Asia, dragging down Korean and Japanese indices. Korea's KOSPI closed nearly 10% lower, while Japan's Nikkei 225 fell 3.55%. The rout marks a shift in investor sentiment: the AI frenzy that once lifted any company mentioning the technology is now giving way to a demand for tangible returns on massive infrastructure spending. SpaceX, after hitting an all-time high, dropped over 16% in a single day, falling below its IPO price of $150. Morgan Stanley's chief investment officer Mike Wilson warned that liquidity, not interest rates, is the main risk for U.S. equities, and predicted volatile July trading with a potential pullback.
