  • Deutsche Bank Sees Dotcom Bubble Echoes in Software Sector Selloff
    February 6, 2026, 6:37 AM EST. The recent selloff in corporate software shares, linked to AI-driven efficiencies, recalls the dotcom bubble's early days, Deutsche Bank's Henry Allen noted. Despite software stocks in the S&P 500 falling nearly 30% from October highs, the broader market remains resilient, with defensive sectors like energy and consumer staples gaining ground. Allen compared this sector rotation to 2000 when tech declines were offset by gains in other areas, keeping the index near record levels for months. However, he warned prolonged sell-offs in dominant sectors eventually pressured the entire index, as seen when the S&P 500 ended 2000 down over 10%. Analysts emphasize the current AI-driven shift differs fundamentally from the dotcom crash, suggesting a more complex market adaptation ahead.
