This is the best summary I could come up with:


Following disappointing quarterly earnings results by Microsoft and Google owner Alphabet, Reuters reports that AI-related companies lost a whopping $190 billion in stock market value.

Microsoft may have eked out a win, with the promise of AI services convincing investors, but even its stock dropped by 0.7 percent in extended trade, per the report.

Google's parent company fared much worse, dropping 5.6 percent after missing ad revenue expectations.

Microsoft beat Apple by becoming a $3 trillion company earlier this month, a massive vote of confidence for its doubling down on the tech.

According to Deutsche Bank strategist Jim Reid, the downturn may be "signaling some overextension of the recent strong rally," according to a note seen by Yahoo Finance.

"This knee-jerk reaction [to tech results] is noise, the AI revolution has started," Wedbush analyst Dan Ives told Yahoo Finance.
