Nvidia's Weak Sales Forecast Dampens AI Spending Boom

On August 28th, 2025, global markets faced a downturn as concerns over the AI-driven spending boom surfaced. US equity futures and shares of Nvidia, a leading chipmaker, fell after the company issued a weaker-than-expected sales outlook, fueling doubts about the sustainability of the recent AI-fueled growth.

Across Asia, markets also softened, with Hong Kong and Chinese shares coming under pressure. This was partly due to Meituan, a major Chinese tech company, reporting losses amid intensifying competition with e-commerce giant Alibaba.

Adding to the trade jitters, Mexico announced plans to raise tariffs on Chinese goods, further complicating the global trade landscape. This move is expected to have ripple effects on the international markets.

Back in India, the markets will be closely watched as new US tariffs on Indian exports take effect, potentially impacting the country's trade dynamics.
