Alphabet dropped 3.9% to $362, underperforming its mega-cap peers on the session.

Profit-taking after a strong run, plus fresh questions about how Google funds its heavy AI capex, weighed on the shares.

$355 is first support; a reclaim of $370 is needed to steady the trend.

Silver firmed 0.4% to $75.31, edging higher but still roughly a third below its cycle peak.

Silver lags gold's central-bank bid; it needs industrial and AI-hardware demand to close the gap with the yellow metal.

$74 support and $78 resistance bracket the move; a gold breakout would likely drag silver with it.
