Brad Olsen: Infometrics Principal Economist on DeepSeek and its impact on the stock market
Tech stocks have been taking a hammering after the debut of DeepSeek. The Chinese tech firm has created a budget AI model said to be cheaper and more efficient than the other models on the market. It sent the stocks of Nasdaq and NVIDIA tumbling – Nasdaq falling about 3% and NVIDIA plummeting more than 16%. Infometrics Principal Economist Brad Olsen told Andrew Dickens that the market has already recovered about half the drop. He says everyone is now trying to get a handle on how big AI is and the amount of money they want to invest in it. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
