AI-driven momentum trading faces challenges as Goldman Sachs reports hedge funds have recorded record sales of U.S. tech stocks over the past two months.

Goldman Sachs noted that hedge funds have been net sellers of the technology sector in six out of the past eight weeks. Cumulatively, the market value of their holdings in this sector has declined by approximately 10%, marking the largest reduction in over a decade of data tracking.

Citi and Bank of America separately noted that the release of the K3 would not weaken the investment rationale for hardware; on the contrary, it could drive higher computing power consumption.
