Investors increasingly doubt whether the huge spending on SI will pay off, but the technology itself does not change because of it.

According to the Bloomberg feed description (text paywalled), a closely watched index of chipmaker stocks is on pace to lose more than $1 trillion in market value amid concerns about higher interest rates, stretched valuations and the enormous cost of building SI infrastructure. The same day, ASML reported record quarterly sales.
