Market Meltdown: Dow Plunges 900 Points Amid Recession Fears

                                                  

The U.S. stock market experienced a sharp downturn on Monday, with major indices posting significant losses as concerns over a potential recession gripped investors. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped nearly 900 points, marking a 2.08% decline, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite suffered its worst day since 2022, falling 4%. The S&P 500 also slid 2.7%, reaching its lowest level in six months.

The sell-off was driven by growing uncertainty surrounding tariff policies and their potential impact on the economy. Comments from President Trump over the weekend, describing the current economic situation as a "period of transition," further fueled market jitters. Key technology stocks, including Tesla, Nvidia, and Alphabet, led the declines, with Tesla experiencing a 15% drop.

Investors sought refuge in defensive sectors such as utilities and consumer staples, while Treasury yields fell amid expectations of a slowdown. The market's volatility index spiked, reflecting heightened fear among traders.
