Tech stocks saw a sharp drop on Friday, with the Nasdaq falling to a three-month low. Concerns about AI-related spending from major companies in the sector contributed to the sell-off. The decline is forecast to erase over a trillion dollars in market cap as worries about the AI boom persist. Despite the tech sector's challenges, other areas of Wall Street showed strength, but the overall impact on the market is considerable.
