AI Stocks Lose $13.2 Trillion in Market Value as Six Tech Giants Slide From 2026 Highs
Artificial intelligence stocks have lost a combined $13.2 trillion in market value from their 2026 highs, marking a steep reversal across some of the technology sector’s largest companies. The scale of the decline is so significant that, according to Coin Bureau, only the United States and China have annual gross domestic products larger than the value erased.
Data shared by Coin Bureau highlights losses across six major companies associated with the AI industry: Alphabet, Nvidia, Broadcom, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), Micron and Meta. Each has recorded a substantial reduction in market value from its respective 2026 peak.
Six AI Giants Record Heavy Market Value Losses
Alphabet has lost approximately $1.62 trillion in market value, representing a 32% decline from its 2026 high. Nvidia follows with a $1.49 trillion reduction, equivalent to a 25% drop.
Broadcom has shed $965 billion, or 41%, while TSMC has lost $700 billion, representing a 28% decline. The figures show that the selloff has affected companies across different parts of the semiconductor and technology industries.
Micron recorded the largest percentage decline among the six companies listed, falling 48% from its 2026 high after losing $678 billion in market value. Meta also experienced a substantial reduction, with $501 billion erased, equivalent to a 25% decline.
Combined Loss Exceeds the Annual GDP of Most Countries
The combined $13.2 trillion decline provides a measure of the scale of the downturn across the AI stock segment. Coin Bureau compared the amount of market value erased with national economic output, stating that only the United States and China have annual GDP figures larger than the reported loss.
The comparison underscores the size of the market capitalization reductions at the companies included in the post. However, the $13.2 trillion figure represents lost stock market value from 2026 highs, not a direct measure of cash withdrawn by investors or a decline in economic output.
The reported losses also show differences in the scale of declines among individual companies. Alphabet and Nvidia recorded the largest dollar-value reductions in the list, while Micron experienced the steepest percentage fall. Broadcom's 41% decline was the second-largest percentage drop among the six companies.Coin Bureau also introduced a comparison of average declines from 2026 highs across different sectors. However, the corresponding sector figures were not included in the supplied post.
