Chip Stocks Sink on AI Slowdown Calls, But Analysts Doubt a Crash Is Near

Chip stocks extended a rout on Monday, triggered by an AI slowdown call from Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei that sent the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index down as much as 5.9%.　　Nvidia fell 3.4%, Broadcom slid nearly 5%, and Micron and AMD each dropped more than 4%, dragging the Nasdaq 100 down as much as 1.3% and reviving debate over whether AI-linked valuations face a sharper correction.　　AI Slowdown Selloff Reaches Asia　　South Koreas SK Hynix slid roughly 7.6% in sympathy with its US peers, tied to the same AI infrastructure buildout, Seoul Economic Daily reported.　　Sponsored　　Sponsored　　Like its US counterparts, SK Hynix also felt the sting of the AI Safety fears.

OpenAI’s Sam Altman and xAIs Elon Musk both endorsed the call.　　Is a Crash Actually Coming　　Not every analyst reads this as the start of something bigger.

CLARITY Act odds fall to 16% as key Democrats resist GOP‘s ’final offer

Odds of the CLARITY Act becoming law this year on Polymarket fell sharply again on Monday after spiking the day before, as key Senate Democrats reportedly said they had not been swayed by Republicans “final” crypto bill proposal.　　Polymarket traders initially saw a newly revised Republican proposal with expanded ethics provisions as a positive sign, sending the odds to 35%. However, their confidence was dashed as reservations about the revised text began mounting, with the odds falling back as low as 16% on Monday.　　US Senator Mark Warner, one of the Democrats involved in negotiations, reportedly said the revised ethics provision was not “near enough,” while Democrats involved in negotiations began preparing a counterproposal on Monday.　　Republicans need 60 votes to advance the bill, and failure on Tuesday could stall legislation that would determine how the US Securities and Exchange Commission and Commodity Futures Trading Commission divide oversight of the US crypto market.　　Key Democrats remain unconvinced by ethics offer　　Punchbowl News Brendan Pedersen reported that Senator Raphael Warnock said Democrats should not advance legislation that fails to address opportunities for corruption that are occurring “in real time.”　　Pedersen reported that Senator Ruben Gallego said the latest ethics offer left “much to be desired” and that

Less Than 10 Billionaires Have Actually Kept Their Promise to Give Away Their Fortune

Key TakeawaysThe Giving Pledge has 256 signers, but fewer than 10 have fully given away their fortunes.John and Laura Arnold are the only living U.S. couple to fulfill the Giving Pledge after 15 years.Greater Good Charities has delivered $1 billion across 121 countries, showing the scale of the challenge.　　When Warren Buffett and Bill and Melinda Gates launched the Giving Pledge in 2010, they challenged billionaires to give away at least half their fortunes. A Fortune report published on March 18, 2026, found that fewer than 10 of the 256 signatories have actually followed through on giving away their wealth, and most of those only did so after death. Among US signatories, Fortune reported that only John and Laura Arnold fully complied with the commitment they signed to give away their fortune. The shortfall is part logistics, part accountability, and, as Elon Musk put it, “Its very easy to give money away to get the appearance of goodness. It is very difficult to give money away for the reality of goodness. Very difficult.”　　A bold promise, and an awkward scorecard　　Silicon Valley loves a public commitment, especially when it comes wrapped in moral purpose. The Giving Pledgebegan in the summer of 2010 as

Balancer eyes wind-down after restructuring fails to revive revenue

Balancer, a decentralized exchange and automated market maker, has proposed winding down the protocol after its post-exploit restructuring failed to generate enough revenue, with its leader saying he underestimated how much a $128 million exploit in November would continue to weigh on adoption.　　The proposal was authored by Balancer Labs CEO Marcus Hardt and published on the Balancer governance forum on Monday. It calls for an orderly wind-down of the protocol and the distribution of its remaining treasury, currently worth more than $9 million, to BAL tokenholders.　　The proposal comes after Balancer Labs shut down in March, when executives opted to continue operating the protocol under a leaner structure. Hardt said Monday that while the restructuring succeeded in cutting costs and delivering the products promised to tokenholders, the revenue side of the plan fell short, echoing profitability challenges faced by several other DeFi protocols this year.　　“What did not come was enough revenue. Most of the protocols revenue still comes from v2, and v3 revenue has not grown to replace it. The product worked. It did not sell enough,” Hardt said in a statement on X.　　Data from DefiLlama show that Balancers monthly protocol revenue fell to $371,000 in November from $1.13 million in
