博通股价连续三个交易日下跌，累计跌幅达17.7%，并创下自2020年3月以来最差的三日表现。此次暴跌导致其市值蒸发超过 3000亿美元，规模约等于一个AMD的市值。市值缩水后，博通在美国上市公司市值排行榜上的位置被Meta超越，跌出前六。 而这场抛售由两记重拳引燃。首先，"谷歌链"核心标的——博通在上周公布了财报，尽管销售额创下历史新高，但其对AI业务 的收入预测未能满足华尔街的极高期望。 其次，"OpenAI链"核心公司——甲骨文刚公布完不及预期的财报后，其为ChatGPT所有者OpenAI建设的部分数据中心，又被 曝完工日期可能从2027年推迟至2028年，这直接引发了市场对AI基础设施建设速度的质疑。 此次股价重挫对投资者的直接影响是巨大的财富蒸发。在短短三个交易日内，博通的市值抹去了超过3000亿美元，这一损失 的规模约等于其竞争对手AMD的总市值。 市值的急剧缩水也改变了美国科技巨头的市值排名。由于博通股价的持续承压，Meta的市值已重新超越博通，使这家社交媒 体巨头重返美国市值第六大公司的位置。 这一变化虽然部分源于Meta股价的温和上涨，但主要还是由博通自身的急剧下跌所驱动。对于市场来说，这种排 ...
