Nasdaq Sees Worst Session Since 2022 As Chip Stocks Tumble After Trump's Taiwan Remarks and Biden's Potential Restrictions

Tech stocks sold off on Wednesday, weighed down by comments from Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and lukewarm forward guidance issued by European chip-equipment maker ASML Holding N.V. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>). Tech venture capitalist and Deepwater Asset Management Managing Partner Gene Munster weighed in on the implications of the geopolitical rhetoric from either side of the aisle for the sector in general and artificial intelligence technology in particular.
What Happened: The Nasdaq Composite Index ended Wednesday&#8217;s session down 2.5% and the Nasdaq 100, comprising 100 of the biggest non-financial tech stocks, fell a steeper 2.94%. The sharp plunge has been triggered by a vortex of geopolitical comments from Trump and President Joe Biden, said Munster in a post on X, formerly Twitter.
&#8220;Trump's comments are part threat and part reality,&#8221; Munster said. Trump threatened to withdraw support for Taiwan, he said, adding that the former president has a history of making threats that he does not follow through on. Munster pointed to the fact that Trump threatened in 2018 about the U.S. exiting NATO, which never materialized.
But in reality, Trump wants to continue supporting Taiwan and &#8220;earn a political win around getting a U.S. ally to &#8216;pay for defense,'&#8221; Munster said. He noted that since 2017 NATO Europe and Canada spending has increased by 28% versus the 20% that the U.S. has been doing.
Regarding Biden&#8217;s comments, Munster noted that the White House wanted to further restrict advanced technology used in building AI to enter China. While companies like ASML were mentioned, greater restrictions could have a negative impact on Nvidia, which could hamper the AI trade in the near term.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-artificial-intelligence-stocks">Best Artificial Intelligence Stocks</a>
Why It&#8217;s Important: The tech entrepreneur sees politics and regulation slowing down AI&#8217;s progress in the near term, i.e. over the next 1-3 years, by making it more expensive to access the underlying hardware. He, however, sees the technology weathering the headwind.
&#8220;This too will pass given the power of AI will eventually surpass the power of politics. In the end, the substance of AI will exceed the hype,&#8221; he added.
The rally seen in the market since the start of 2023 has been fueled by the hype around AI and its long-term potential. Most analysts, including Munster, believe th<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/05/38910879/stock-market-to-rally-for-3-5-years-before-ai-bubble-bursts-predicts-veteran-analyst-gene-munste">e AI bubble will last at least for 3-5 years.</a>
The Global X Artificial Intelligence &amp; Technology ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AIQ#NASDAQ">AIQ</a>) ended Wednesday&#8217;s session down 3.33% to $35.72, according to <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro data.</a>

Content creator Jimmy Donaldson, popularly known as&nbsp;MrBeast&nbsp;posted pictures with comedian&nbsp;Kevin Hart, sparking speculation among fans about a potential collaboration between the two celebrities.
What Happened: On Wednesday, MrBeast took to Instagram and shared some pictures with Hart humorously referring to him as Twitch streamer Kai Cenat.

Chewy Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHWY#NYSE">CHWY</a>) founder Ryan Cohen has sparked speculation after posting the word &#8220;TRUMP&#8221; 665 times on Elon Musk&#8216;s social media platform, X.
What Happened: Cohen&#8217;s cryptic message has left the internet abuzz with theories about its meaning. The post comes after Cohen, a Canadian entrepreneur and activist investor, recently endorsed former President Donald Trump following an assassination attempt on Trump.
Several social media users engaged with Cohen&#8217;s post, encouraging others to decode the message, and prompting some to count how many times the word &#8220;TRUMP&#8221; appeared in the text.

Trump was shot and wounded while addressing a campaign rally near Butler, Pennsylvania, on Jul. 13. Cohen, who is also the CEO of GameStop Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>), has seen the company&#8217;s stock rise over 7% since the start of the week, following his Trump endorsement.
GameStop has had a strong year in the market, with its stock up by 67% in the first seven months of 2024.

Why It Matters: Cohen is known for his business acumen and foresight. His e-commerce venture, Chewy, was founded in 2011 and later sold to PetSmart for $3.35 billion in 2017, marking the largest e-commerce acquisition at the time. Cohen&#8217;s early recognition of the growing trend in pet supplies and pet health products has been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/24/07/39756943/ryan-cohen-the-goat-fresh-data-shows-chewy-mastermind-anticipated-massive-trends-in-pet-supplies">praised as a masterstroke</a>.
Meanwhile, the tech industry&#8217;s support for Trump has been a topic of debate. Billionaires, including those from Silicon Valley, have been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39244498/ex-white-house-aide-scaramucci-says-silicon-valley-taking-dangerous-approach-by-backing-trump-doesnt">publicly endorsing and fundraising</a> for Trump, a move that has been criticized as a &#8220;dangerous approach&#8221; by some, including former White House Director Anthony Scaramucci.
Musk, the CEO of Tesla Inc., has also been in the spotlight for supporting Trump. Musk, who initially stated that he would not donate to either Trump or Joe Biden in the 2024 presidential election, has since publicly endorsed Trump and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39804113/exclusive-elon-musk-is-burning-his-own-blue-bridges-by-donating-to-trump-says-market-expert">reportedly donated millions of dollars</a> to a political action committee.
While the implications of Cohen&#8217;s endorsement and his recent cryptic message are yet to be fully understood, they add an intriguing layer to the ongoing intersection of tech, business, and politics.
