The stock market experienced significant volatility at the start of September, marking it as the worst week of the year for the Nasdaq and S&P 500. This decline is attributed to ongoing investor concerns regarding economic indicators, interest rate adjustments by the Federal Reserve, and geopolitical tensions.

Given the current market volatility and investor anxiety over economic conditions, stocks may continue to struggle in the near term. Concerns around interest rates and economic indicators will likely weigh on market sentiment, suggesting further declines.

The tech sector has been particularly impacted by interest rate fears. Companies within this sector may face continued pressure, leading to potential further declines in technology-focused ETFs.
