Tech stocks struggle as U.S. market declines 10%
In recent weeks, the U.S. stock market experienced a decline of 10%. The S&P 500 index fell from nearly 6,150 points in February 2025 to about 5,500 points. Several technology companies have felt the impact of this drop. Investors are closely watching firms like Alphabet, which operates Google, amid these market changes. Some analysts are concerned that a strong market position, or "wide moat," may not be enough to protect companies from downturns. They believe that market conditions can change quickly, affecting even established businesses. As the market continues to face challenges, experts advise caution for investors. Past performance does not guarantee future success, and careful consideration is needed before making investment decisions.
