Global markets plunged into turmoil on Tuesday, with US stocks taking a significant hit as investors continued to grapple with the ongoing tech sector downturn. The tech-heavy NASDAQ composite index, in particular, suffered a sharp decline, with major players in the chip and semiconductor industries leading the charge downward. As the global economy struggles to recover from the effects of inflation, supply chain disruptions, and geopolitical tensions, investors are growing increasingly nervous about the prospects for the tech sector, which has long been a bellwether for the overall market. The question on everyone's mind is whether this latest downturn marks the beginning of a more sustained decline or a temporary correction.
