Global stock markets have been unsettled, particularly in the technology sector, after a significant sell-off led by U.S. tech companies like Nvidia. The S&P 500 experienced fluctuations, ultimately falling by 0.2% on Wednesday, following a 2% decline the previous day. Nvidia's stock saw a turbulent week, with a nearly 10% drop the day before, marking the largest single-day loss for any publicly traded U.S. company. Meanwhile, a decrease in U.S. job openings has added to concerns regarding the economy, prompting speculation about potential interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve.
