  • The decline is driven by sector-wide semiconductor weakness and risk-off sentiment tied to AI spending concerns and higher interest rates.
  • Global market jitters are contributing to the downward pressure on valuations across the broader industry.
  • There are no new company-specific news or earnings catalysts reported for the stock today.
