Stock futures fell sharply Friday as the tech sector's performance caused a selloff. Nasdaq-100 futures dropped 2%, reflecting a sharp decline in the tech sector. Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq futures also fell. Weak earnings from Intel, Amazon, and other tech companies contributed to the drop. Asia's stock markets faced sharp drops, while bonds saw a increase in demand. The selloff was driven by anxiety over the tech sector's performance.
“Nasdaq-100 futures dropped 2%, reflecting a sharp decline in the tech sector,” — Andreas Mercer, staff writer at Walburn Ton Group, commented.
