Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) is the biggest loser of the Mag 7, down over 17%. The world’s most prominent AI company, along with other chip stocks, are getting hammered on fears that spending on AI chips designed by Nvidia and others will slow.
“The DeepSeek news is clearly likely to put pressure on semiconductor stocks today and perhaps in coming days, till there is more clarity on its potential impact on AI chip demand,” Barron’s reported Jefferies equity sales specialist William Beavington’s comments on the situation.
Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) and Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) are the other two Magnificent Seven stocks losing big in Monday trading, down 2.8% and 1.8%, respectively. Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) and are either down slightly or up early in today’s trading.
Not Every Stock Is Getting Hit
Three stocks making big moves higher in Monday morning trading include Asana (NYSE:ASAN), Kingsoft Cloud Holdings (NASDAQ:KC), and Tarsus Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:TARS), up 10.1%, 7.3%, and 9.1%, respectively.
Asana stock continues to benefit from strong Q3 2025 results reported in early December that included a 2-cent adjusted profit, six cents higher than a year earlier. It also expects to grow revenues from its AI Studio product launch.
Kingsoft Cloud Holdings, the Chinese cloud infrastructure company, continues to gain analyst attention. In December, UBS analyst Wendy Zhan upgraded its stock to Buy from Neutral, with a 200% increase in the firm’s target price, to $12.50.
Tarsus Pharmaceuticals recently got an increased target price from Oppenheimer because of its sales figures for XDEMVY, the biotech’s drug for treating ocular rosacea.
