Japan Leads Asia Markets Decline, Europe Slides; Crude Oil Falls below $70 - Global Markets Today While US Slept
Portfolio Pulse from Akanksha Bakshi
U.S. stocks experienced a significant decline, with the S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow seeing their steepest losses since early August. Nvidia's sharp drop of nearly 10% contributed to the broader market decline. Weaker manufacturing data and uncertainty over Federal Reserve interest rate cuts dampened investor sentiment. Most S&P 500 sectors fell, particularly energy, tech, and communication services, while real estate and consumer staples gained. Asian and European markets also saw declines, and crude oil prices fell below $70.
