This is you Tech Industry Daily: Breaking News & Analysis podcast.

US technology shares staged a modest recovery yesterday, with the S&P 500 information technology sector climbing 0.5% as Nvidia surged 3.2% and Apple added 1.2%, offsetting declines in Microsoft down 1.1% and Oracle off 3.9%, according to CommSecTV's Morning Report. This rebound followed AI-driven selloffs, with software stocks like Crowdstrike dropping 3.6% and Salesforce falling 2.9% amid fears that advanced models, such as Alibaba's Qwen 3.5 capable of complex tasks, could disrupt traditional providers.

Micron Technology stands out, riding AI-fueled memory demand and DRAM recovery, as Zacks Investment Research highlights, positioning it for growth while small-cap tech like lidar specialist Hesai Group forecasts 30.2% annual earnings growth through partnerships with NVIDIA and doubled production to over 4 million units in 2026, per Sahm Capital analysis. FAANG valuations face pressure from surging AI capital expenditures expected to crimp free cash flow this year, EBC reports, shifting investor focus to payback timelines.

Market trends show divergence: Apple holds bullish momentum with RSI above 60 near $278, while Amazon appears oversold. No major regulatory shifts or funding rounds emerged today, but physical AI innovations demand rigorous vetting to mitigate real-world risks, Computerworld notes.

For businesses, prioritize AI capex with clear utilization metrics to sustain margins; consumers, watch for pricing power in cloud services. Practical takeaway: Diversify into high-insider-ownership growth stocks like Hesai for aligned management incentives.

Looking ahead, 2026 rebound hinges on AI revenue acceleration outpacing spending, potentially reshaping FAANG as capital-intensive utilities.
