中信证券 近期美股科技股波动的思考 20250304 当前市场交易特征与去年 8、9 月份相似，都是典型的宏观主导结构。市场情绪 受宏观数据和政策变化影响显著。例如，今年微软削减部分数据中心项目、台 积电订单缩减、新加坡对英伟达出货审查等消息，在当前敏感时期结合宏观数 据走弱，使得市场出现明显下跌。然而，从长期来看，这些传闻本身并不会构 成持续性负面影响，因为企业通常会进行阶段性调整以适应市场变化。 摘要 Q&A 近期美股科技股的表现如何？背后的主要原因是什么？ 近期美股科技股出现了显著的下跌，主要指数如纳斯达克、标普 500 等都有较 大跌幅。背后的主要原因包括宏观经济数据的走弱，例如服务业 PMI 数据意外 走低、消费者信心指数下降以及通胀预期上升。此外，特朗普政府的一系列关 税政策，尤其是对墨西哥和加拿大的关税表述，也使得市场情绪变得非常悲观。 这些因素导致市场对经济增长和消费预期明显下行，从而引发了科技股的下跌。 • 宏观经济下行预期和高利率环境对科技股，尤其是软件和 AI 算力相关股票 造成显著冲击，软件作为经济后周期资产需求减少，AI 算力短期投入大于 产出导致资本开支缩减。 • 当前市场交易特征 ...
