US tech shares recover some losses from steep DeepSeek selloff
Jan 28, 2025, 12:24 PM
NEW YORK/BENGALURU/LONDON (Reuters) -Technology shares on Tuesday regained some ground lost and AI chip leader Nvidia rose more than 6% after the previous day's record-breaking wipeout sparked by a low-cost Chinese artificial intelligence model that threatens the dominance of U.S. rivals.

Monday's selloff was prompted by the release of a free AI assistant launched by China's DeepSeek last week that the startup said uses less data at a fraction of the cost of incumbent services.
