The semiconductor sector is undergoing a cascading inventory correction triggered by revised AI chip demand expectations. Over-optimism on GPU and HBM consumption has given way to capital expenditure discipline among cloud providers, with Meta’s move to lease idle AI capacity revealing underutilization risks.
