Indias IT shares hit three-year low as OpenAI move revives AI fears

Indias biggest technology stocks just had their worst stretch in years, and the catalyst was not an earnings miss or a regulatory crackdown. It was OpenAI announcing a new enterprise AI venture backed by more than $4 billion.　　The Nifty IT index dropped 3.7% on May 12, marking its third consecutive session of losses and dragging the benchmark to levels not seen since May 2023. Service-oriented heavyweights like TCS, Infosys, and Wipro bore the brunt of the sell-off, as investors rushed to reprice what AI-native competitors could mean for the traditional outsourcing model that has powered Indias tech economy for decades.　　What happened and why it matters　　The new venture, armed with billions in capital, is aimed squarely at enterprise customers. The same enterprise customers that currently pay Indian IT firms to build, maintain, and manage their technology stacks.　　The sell-off was concentrated in service-based IT firms, the companies most exposed to the risk that AI tools could automate significant chunks of what their employees do today. Profit booking accelerated as traders who had been sitting on gains decided the risk-reward calculus had shifted.　　As of May 13, no meaningful rebound had materialized. The index remained near its three-year trough, suggesting this was not a

Clarity Act Moves Forward After 15-9 Committee Vote

Senate Banking Committee PASSES the Clarity Act in 15-9 vote.　　Sen. Cynthia Lummis called the proposal “the hardest piece of legislation” of her career. She said the bill fits new digital assets into an older regulatory system. The text splits oversight between the SEC and the CFTC and sets rules for exchanges, brokers, and custodians.　　The committee rejected several Democratic amendments during the markup session. Sen. Elizabeth Warren opposed the bill and called it “a bill written by the crypto industry.” She argued that the draft weakens securities law protections that date to 1929.　　Warren also warned that the bill allows banks to increase crypto exposure. She linked that risk to practices before the 2008 financial crisis. Republicans voted down her amendments in 11-13 votes.　　Ethics, Sanctions, and DeFi Debates Shape Vote　　Democrats raised concerns about illicit finance and stablecoins during the hearing. Sen. Jack Reed said Iranian actors use stablecoins to buy drone components. He sought authority for regulators to block foreign illicit stablecoin flows, but the amendment failed.　　Sen.

Ethereum　　Ethereum Battles and Maintains Its Range Above $2,200　　.　　Ethereum Price Long-Term Analysis: Ranging　　The largest altcoin continues to trade within a range between the $2,200 support level and the $2,500 high.
