AI Stocks Today (Dec. 12, 2025): Broadcom and Oracle Spark Fresh AI Bubble Fears as Nvidia, AMD and Big Tech Slide at Midday

Updated: Friday, Dec. 12, 2025 (midday U.S. session). Prices cited below reflect quotes around 12:25 p.m. ET and may move quickly. Wall Street’s AI trade is getting stress-tested again on Friday — and the pressure point isn’t demand for AI, but what investors are willing to pay for it. By midday, AI-chip and AI-infrastructure leaders are leading the downside after Broadcom’s margin warning and renewed unease around Oracle’s debt-funded AI buildout, prompting a broad pullback in the Nasdaq-heavy growth complex. At the same time, the broader market remains within reach of record territory, with investors rotating into sectors perceived as less exposed to AI valuation risk. Reuters+2Financial

NEW YORK — Friday, Dec. 12, 2025 (updated around 9:46 a.m. ET): U.S. stocks opened mixed, with the tech-heavy Nasdaq under pressure while the Dow held up better—an early sign that investors are still rotating away from the most crowded parts of the “AI trade” and into other pockets of the market.

Meanwhile, storage and memory names—some of 2025’s biggest winners—also fell in a bout of profit-taking. Slickcharts+4Slickcharts+4Slickcharts+4 Below is a
