The Number That Decides If Tech Stocks Crash or Recover

The Nasdaq just dropped 4% in a single session, wiping over a trillion dollars from tech stocks. Broadcom's guidance disappointed. Alphabet completed an $85 billion equity offering to fund AI infrastructure. Meta is reportedly considering a $64 billion raise of its own. Microsoft and Amazon may follow. And Friday's blowout jobs report sent bond yields surging, crushing rate cut hopes. But the real catalyst hasn't hit yet. On Wednesday, June 10, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for May drops at 8:30 AM Eastern. Prediction markets are pricing in a year-over-year reading above 3.2%, with some forecasts pushing past 3.4%. A hot print could kill the rate cut narrative entirely. A cool print could spark a massive tech relief rally. In this video, we break down every force behind last week's sell-off, why Big Tech is diluting shareholders at an unprecedented scale to fund AI, what Broadcom's earnings miss signals about the sustainability of AI spending, and how Wednesday's CPI report could determine whether tech stocks crash further or stage a full recovery.
