Oct ‌15 (Reuters) - US ​semiconductor ​stocks were set ‌to lose $2 trillion ⁠in market value ‌on Thursday in ‌the steep selloff since last ​week, driven by ⁠rising bets of an ​interest-rate hike and concerns over the ​cost of ‌the AI buildout.

The Philadelphia ⁠SE Semiconductor index was last ⁠down 3.3%, adding ​to a $1.64 trillion wipeout over the past ‌six sessions.
