Global stock indexes fell during the week as U.S. technology shares sold off over concerns about the sustainability of increased artificial intelligence spending and higher oil prices amid Middle East tensions. U.S. indexes ended the week lower, with European and Asian indexes also declining. Rising oil prices and escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East added to investor concerns.
