SoftBank Group sold a portion of its Nvidia holdings worth $3.8 billion this week, reducing its exposure amid profit-booking in AI-linked assets. The sale followed a 240% surge in Nvidia’s share price over the past year. Global equity indices including the NASDAQ and Nikkei 225 fell 0.9% and 0.7%, respectively, in subsequent sessions as investors trimmed positions in AI chip and semiconductor stocks. The total market capitalization of AI-focused companies dropped by $210 billion over the two-day period.
