All right, guys, thanks so much. Welcome to closing bell. I'm Scott Wapner, live from Post 9,

here at the New York Stock Exchange. This maker breakout begins with what else, the tech sell-off,

and what it might say about the market's potential next move. We'll ask our experts over this

final stretch, including the Wharton School's Jeremy Siegel, Fund Stratt, Tom Lee,

High Towers, Stephanie Link, all joining me momentarily.

There's the scorecard with 60 to go now in regulation.

Big selling in chips again has led the NASDAQ to its worst date since last October.

All of the big recent winners, they are down substantially, especially from the chip space.

AMD's down more than 10 percent, microns down nearly 12.

Broadcom has been a big loser on the backside of its earnings.

Did it start this whole thing?

We'll investigate further elsewhere.

its AI ambitions. Take a look at the stock. It's come off its worst levels. But nonetheless,

Let's bring in High Tower, Stephanie Link. She owns the stock. FundStrat's Tom Lee is with us as well.

Both are CNBC contributors, Steph. It's great to have you here.

Thanks.
