Stock futures dip amid tech decline

U.S. stock futures declined sharply, with the Nasdaq Composite experiencing an unprecedented drop of 1.1%, amid concerns over excessive spending on artificial intelligence and its impact on the market. The fears were particularly focused on Corov, which fell more than 5% before the market opened, amid worries of excessive debt to fund AI technologies.
