How DEPEPEK’s AI disturbance sent $ 593 billion shock to NVIDIA, shook the global stock markets

Deepseek Ai, Chinese cheap artificial intelligence (AI) Launch from Hangzhou, shook the US technological shares and global stock markets, dividing the value of the NVIDIA chip manufacturer by as much as $ 593 billion overnight, a resident of 17 percent for the loss of the Silicon Valley Golden Child. According to LSEG data, this is a record loss of M-CAP for a Wall Street stock in history.

AI interruption has hit Jensen Huang Nvidia The most difficult, but the scenario is unpleasant throughout the board – the S&P 500 dropped out, and Nasdaq dropped over 3 percent. The fears of the expensive American efforts in AI technology against the messages that the comparable Chinese alternative – located on an open source and made at some of the costs – were what was largely dragging the markets.

We look at how AI interruption of AI on Deepseek He sent a $ 593 billion shock to NVIDIA, dragging global technology stocks and shook the stock markets around the world.

What is Deepseek AI?

According to a Reuters Report, Chinese launcher Deepseek launches a free AI assistant last week, claiming that he uses less data on some of the price of other existing alternatives, such as Openai ChatgptGoogle’s Gemini and others.

Deepseek models include Deepseek-V3 and Deepseek-R1. According to the report, little is known about the launch of Hangzhou behind Deepseekwhich is owned by the majority of Liang Venfen, co-founder of the High-Flyer quantitative hedge fund.

Its researchers wrote in a document last month that the Depepeek-V3, launched on January 10, uses chips with a lower NVIDIA training ability to spend less than $ 6 million.

According to a publication in the official Deepseek “WeChat” account, a Depepeek-R1, published last week, is 20 to 50 times cheaper to use than Openai O1 model, depending on the task.

The report notes that energy companies have seen sales, as many investors have recently flown in the hope of a mass demand for demand from hungry electricity data centers needed for AI.

Expert view: Deepseek Is it a threat to US technology COS?

Brian Jacobsen, Chief Economist at Annex Wealth Management at Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, told Reuters That if Deepseek’s allegations are true, it is “the proverbial” better misery “that could break the whole story of AI that has helped to make the markets over the last two years.” He added: “This can mean less demand for chips, less need for massive construction of energy to feed models and less need for large-scale data centers.”

US president Donald Trump It also weighs on the discussion, saying on January 27 that Deepseek should be “awakening” and can be a positive development.

Where did investors take their money?

The report notes that most expirations from Technical supplies He moved to the state bonds and currencies-10 years of profitability of the American treasury fell to 4.53 percent, while in the currencies the Japanese Yen and the Swiss Frank gathered against the US dollar.
