Global Markets Plunge Amid Tech Sell-Off and Economic Concerns

 

Global markets experienced a significant downturn today, with Japan’s Nikkei 225 index leading the decline, plummeting by 5.8%. This sharp drop follows a tech-driven retreat on Wall Street, where weak manufacturing data has raised concerns about the U.S. economy’s health and the Federal Reserve’s timing on interest rate cuts.

Investors are increasingly worried that the Fed may have missed its window to lower rates, potentially exacerbating economic slowdown risks. The anticipation of a crucial employment report has further fueled market anxiety, with futures for the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average also showing declines.

The tech sector has been particularly hard-hit, with Intel’s announcement of a 15% workforce reduction adding to the market’s woes. This move is seen as a response to intense competition from rivals like Nvidia and AMD.

In Europe, major indices followed the downward trend, with Germany’s DAX and France’s CAC 40 both recording losses. The broader impact of these economic concerns is evident as markets worldwide brace for further volatility.
