Amazon’s $200B AI Spending Jolt Spurs Stock Selloff as Big Tech Capex Nears $650B

Amazon’s $200B AI Spending Jolt Spurs Stock Selloff as Big Tech Capex Nears $650B

Amazon.com shares slipped Friday, with investors uneasy after the company unveiled a roughly $200 billion push to beef up its artificial intelligence infrastructure. The hefty price tag behind Amazon’s AI ambitions raised fresh doubts for some shareholders. Amazon, Alphabet, Microsoft and Meta have now committed over $630 billion in capex—spending that covers everything from servers and chips to sprawling data centers, and most of it is getting funneled into AI projects. Morgan Stanley analysts point out that investors aren’t cutting tech giants any slack for these hefty outlays unless there’s a visible path to strong returns on invested capital. https://www.reuters.com/business/retail-consumer/big-techs-quarter-four-charts-ai-splurge-cloud-growth-2026-02-06/
Dow hits 50,000 as Amazon’s $200 billion AI spending plan spooks tech investors

Dow hits 50,000 as Amazon’s $200 billion AI spending plan spooks tech investors

Wall Street surged Friday, pushing the Dow past 50,000 for the first time as chipmakers soared on hopes for fresh AI data-center investments, though Amazon slipped amid concerns over increased spending. The S&P 500 climbed 1.73%, with the Nasdaq Composite up 1.91%. Nvidia, AMD, and Broadcom all rallied over 7%. “Real demand for AI products” is still drawing in buyers, said Ross Mayfield, investment strategy analyst at Baird. This shift is turning heads as the once-unified AI trade splits: hardware and infrastructure suppliers—those “picks and shovels” plays—are getting the market’s vote, but software firms and heavy spenders face more scrutiny. With Big Tech poised to pour about $600 billion into AI by 2026, investors have stopped handing out easy wins; now, every dollar committed is seen as a test of margins. “A de-risking trade,” SanJac Alpha’s Andrew Wells called it. Over at St. James’s Place, strategist Carlota Estragues Lopez pointed out that headlines get “interpreted far more cautiously” than before.
