Tech stocks slide as TSMC drops 5.26% and Nikkei sinks over 12% in a month
A renewed tech selloff is being driven by semiconductors: TSMC's higher capex guidance and crowded-position unwinds pushed chip equities lower, with the Philly semiconductor index down ~19% from its recent peak. Netflix's earnings disappointment added to risk-off pressure, while Brent above $85 revives inflation and rate-hike concerns. The combination tightens financial conditions for growth stocks and increases near-term volatility across global equities.
