🔴 KLA is trading 4.38% down in pre-market amid concerns over AI infrastructure returns

• No new company-specific overnight catalyst surfaced.
• Overnight reports described selling across technology and chip stocks after disappointing results and outlooks from Alphabet, Amazon, and Intel; SOXX was down 2.81% pre-market.
