Technology stocks sold off sharply Thursday morning after Broadcom's earnings forecast triggered a pullback in the artificial intelligence trade that had driven recent market gains.

Nasdaq 100 futures declined as traders unwound positions in tech stocks following Broadcom's results. The semiconductor company's outlook spooked investors who had been riding momentum in AI-related equities through recent sessions. The selloff reflects growing caution in a sector that has seen sustained buying pressure tied to artificial intelligence developments. Broadcom's forecast appears to have prompted reassessment of valuations and growth expectations across the technology space. Market participants are monitoring whether the pullback signals a broader correction or a temporary pause in the AI-driven rally. Trading volume and subsequent earnings reports from other major tech firms will provide additional signals about investor sentiment heading into the session.
