AI Disruption Causes Major Market Sell-Off
- Market Panic Intensifies: On February 23, 2023, a major sell-off occurred due to fears about AI's potential impact on companies and the economy, particularly hitting tech stocks hard, with IBM shares plummeting 13%, marking its worst single-day loss since 2000.
- Unemployment Rate Warning: Citrini Research issued a report predicting that in two years, AI-induced job displacement could push the unemployment rate above 10%, which spooked the markets and led to a 1% drop in the S&P 500 index on the same day.
- Investors Shift to HALO Stocks: In light of growing concerns about AI's impact, investors are increasingly seeking HALO stocks, which are deemed less vulnerable to AI disruption and may even benefit from the efficiencies AI can provide.
- Examples of HALO Stocks: HALO stocks mentioned by Josh Brown include ExxonMobil, McDonald's, FedEx, Coca-Cola, Caterpillar, and Deere, all of which are considered less susceptible to AI replacement due to their heavy asset bases and have outperformed IBM and other tech stocks in 2023.

February Market Review and Outlook
- Nvidia Stock Decline: Despite Nvidia reporting a strong quarter and even stronger forward guidance, its shares fell 7.3% in February, primarily due to concerns about whether its major clients can sustain their capital expenditure plans, which negatively impacted investor confidence.
- Tech Sector Downturn: The S&P 500 and Nasdaq dropped 0.4% and nearly 1% respectively, with monthly declines of nearly 1% for the S&P 500 and 3.4% for the Nasdaq marking the worst performance since March 2025, highlighting the disruptive impact of AI on the market.
- Geopolitical Market Influence: The future direction of the markets may hinge on geopolitical developments, particularly regarding Iran, as President Trump expressed dissatisfaction with the nuclear deal negotiations, potentially increasing market uncertainty, even as oil prices have risen about 17% year to date.
- Upcoming Earnings Reports: Next week will see Berkshire Hathaway's first earnings report under new CEO Greg Abel, alongside earnings from Norwegian Cruise Line and Target, with market expectations high for these companies' performances in a competitive retail landscape.
