Nikkei 225 Falls 5.3% as AI Stock Selloff Spreads

Tokyo's Nikkei 225 — Japan's main stock index — fell as much as 5.3% on Oct. 15 as selling in artificial-intelligence stocks spread globally, the Financial Times reported. If your fund holds Japanese or tech shares, you felt it. In my view, this looks like fear-driven selling, not proof companies are cutting AI spending.
