Last week was a tumultuous one for the markets, especially for one of the technology sector’s giants, Nvidia. Triggered by the announcement of the Chinese DeepSeek AI system, which claims to be both cheaper and more efficient than American competitors. The company experienced a major sell-off, with its market capitalization shrinking by nearly $600 billion — the largest one-day loss in U.S. history.
