🟢 Tech ETF (SPTE) is trading 2.6% up in after-hours trading following September 14–15 AI-stock selloff

SPTE is trading 2.6% up in after-hours trading, appearing to reflect stabilization after the September 14–15 AI-stock selloff.

• The rebound does not appear tied to a new positive sector-wide catalyst.
• Warnings from Anthropic, OpenAI, and xAI pressured chipmakers and AI infrastructure stocks; NVIDIA fell 3.4% on September 15.
• The September 16, 2026 outlook remains cautious: Treasury yields above 5%, higher oil prices, and expectations for a Federal Reserve rate hike continue to pressure growth stocks.
