USD is trading at $79.98 (+4.30%) as U.S. equity futures recover after a sharp technology sell-off. - Doubts over adequate returns on AI infrastructure spending, alongside debt and financing-cost concerns, drove the sell-off. - Semiconductor and AI-linked shares were hit particularly hard; investors are looking to this week’s earnings for direction. - The bounce appears broad and tentative, not a resolution of AI-sector concerns; Asian markets remained volatile, and U.S. futures were higher before the open.
