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 in an X post 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: approximately $1.62 trillion in market value lost, a 32% decline from its 2026 high.
• Nvidia: $1.49 trillion lost, equivalent to a 25% drop.
• Broadcom: $965 billion lost, a 41% decline.
• TSMC: $700 billion lost, representing a 28% decline.
• Micron: $678 billion lost, a 48% fall from its 2026 high.
• Meta: $501 billion lost, equivalent to a 25% decline.

The figures show that the selloff has affected companies across different parts of the semiconductor and technology industries. The list spans chip designers (Nvidia and Broadcom), a contract chipmaker (TSMC), a memory chip producer (Micron) and internet platform operators (Alphabet and Meta).

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 However, the $13.2 trillion figure represents lost stock market value from 2026 highs, not a direct measure of cash withdrawn by investors or a decline in economic output. Market value in this context reflects the combined price of each company's outstanding shares, so the figure tracks how far share prices have fallen from their peaks rather than the actual movement of funds.

Uneven Declines Across Individual Companies

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 post. Until those numbers are published, the company-level figures above remain the only measure in the post for judging how the AI-linked selloff compares with the rest of the market, making the sector breakdown worth watching for readers who want to benchmark these declines against other industries.
