🔴 Memory Chips ETF (QBIT.SW) is trading 8.74% down as rate concerns pressure memory-chip stocks

QBIT.SW is trading at CHF 16.60, down 8.74%, as hotter-than-expected U.S. inflation revived rate concerns and weighed on memory-chip stocks.

• Memory-chip and semiconductor stocks saw a global selloff; Samsung fell 9% and SK Hynix 11% in Thursday’s Asian session.
• Higher-rate and borrowing-cost concerns for capital-intensive AI investments hit the ETF’s memory-chip sector particularly hard, indicating a sector-led decline rather than a financials-sector move.
