Tech stocks were hit hard on Friday, with the Nasdaq reaching a near three-month low. Concerns about AI-related spending particularly from tech giants led to the market decline. The decline is expected to wipe out more than $1 trillion in market value as worries about the AI market persist. Despite the tech sector's struggles, other areas of Wall Street showed strength, but the overall impact on the market is significant.
